Our works stalled, govt must release Rs 27-crore grant: Mohali Mayor

Mohali Mayor Amarjit Singh Jeeti Sidhu has complained that they have not received the promised grant of approximately Rs 27 crore from the Punjab government which is hampering the development projects in the city. The mayor also made it clear that the MC is facing a severe fund crunch and has already written to the Local Government Department and the Chief Minister seeking financial assistance. He alleged that several departments, including PSPCL and GMADA, still owe significant amounts to the MC. 'The government must immediately release the grant so that the process of execution can begin,' Sidhu added. Sources in the MC said that the sanctioned works include laying premix on various city roads, building libraries in sectors 77, 78, 79, and 80, constructing community centres in villages Kumbra and Mataur, replacing old grills along central verges of main roads, and developing a new chowk in Mataur, among other projects. 'As per the available funds, the MC is already carrying out essential maintenance works in the city. Until the money for these special projects is received, we will not start them. Our priority is to complete the most urgent works first,' said Sidhu.
