Committed to improving Mohali infra: Balbir Singh Sidhu

Mohali, January 23

Sitting MLA and Congress candidate from Mohali Balbir Singh Sidhu today said he was committed to improving the basic infrastructure in Mohali.

Sidhu said though Mohali had top class private health facilities, they worked hard to match these by improving government medical facilities. He said they upgraded a civil dispensary into a community health centre in 3B1. He said this 30-bed centre had been built with modern technology and would have doctors from 11 specialties.

The Congress candidate said they had also planned a 350-bed district hospital at a cost of Rs100 crore at Sector 66. Of the 350 beds, 50 would be for private rooms. He said the hospital would also house a 50-bed mother and child hospital.

Meanwhile, Sidhu received a shot in the arm as three Akali families joined the Congress at Sekhan Majra village today in his presence.

Welcoming these families into the Congress fold, Sidhu said he had urged all to come and join them in their dream to make Mohali the number one district of Punjab.
