In wake of upcoming elections, the local unit of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has initiated a move to constitute booth-level committees. A decision was taken at a recent meeting of the district urban unit led by its president Harvinder Singh Sandhu.

The civic issues of different areas should be highlighted,” said Sandhu.
