Mayor Karamjit Singh Rintu along with MLA Sunil Dutti inaugurated the recarpeting work of Majitha Road near Guru Nanak Dev Hospital here on Saturday. The Municipal Corporation (MC) had floated tenders for works worth Rs20 crore for recarpeting of city roads before the outbreak of coronavirus. But these works could not be started due to lockdown.
Mayor Karamjit Singh Rintu said in the first phase, the road would be constructed from Majitha Road Puli to SSSS Chowk and thereafter from Majitha Road Bypass to the Puli. After that, circular road would be recarpeted from SSSS Chowk to Kachihari Chowk. Similarly, all major roads of the city would also be constructed.
“MCA has played an important role in protecting citizens from Covid-19. All councillors, officers, employees of the Municipal Corporation, especially the Health Department officials and the sewermen have worked tirelessly day and night for the cause of the people of Amritsar,” said Mayor Karamjit Singh.
Councillor Sameer Dutta, Sandeep Sharma, Pardeep Sharma, Riteish Sharma, Bobby, Rambali, Anek Singh and Municipal Corporation officials were present on the occasion.
