Baner Khad Bridge’s Second Span to Be Completed by March: Pawan Kajal

Kangra, Nov 10 (UNI) State BJP vice-president and Kangra MLA Pawan Kajal on Tuesday said the second span of the bridge being constructed over Baner Khad, connecting Nandrul Khart with Har Jalari, would be completed by March, providing improved road connectivity to around a dozen panchayats in the Changar area.
Addressing villagers during a public relations campaign at Nandrul, Kajal said the bridge was being constructed under the MLA Priority Scheme and would save residents from long detours.
He said the damaged filtration gallery of the Nandrul Khart drinking water supply scheme would be repaired at a cost of Rs 15 lakh to ensure adequate drinking water for villagers.
Kajal urged residents to avail themselves of the benefits of the Pradhan Mantri Solar Ujjala Yojana, which provides a subsidy of Rs 85,000.
He further said that 1,350 houses had been sanctioned in the Kangra Assembly constituency under the Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY), with construction underway following geo-tagging.
Taking a dig at the state government, Kajal alleged that it had failed to provide employment opportunities to unemployed youth. UNI AR CDS
