‘Committed to giving F’bad a makeover’

Faridabad: Chief Minister Manohar Lal Khattar said here on Sunday that the BJP rule was committed to giving Faridabad, the industrial hub of Haryana and North India, a complete makeover with projects worth several hundred crores. He was addressing ‘Shankhnad’ rally organised by local MLA and Industries and Environment Minister Vipul Goel at Sector 12. MLAs Mool Chand Sharma, Seema Trikha, Tek Chand Sharma and Nagender Bhadana were among those who attended the rally. However, MP and Union Minister of State for Social Justice and Empowerment Krishan Pal Gurjar was conspicuous by his absence. The relations between Goel and Gurjar have been a subject of debate after a public spat between them on a Dasehra function here in October. Claiming that Faridabad had got its due under the present government, Khattar said besides the Smart City project worth Rs 2,600 crore, the city was being given a makeover at a budget of several hundred crores. While some of the projects had either been completed, many others had been under implementation. Citing Metro to Ballabgarh as an achievement, he said the work on the ambitious project of connecting Faridabad with Gurugram was expected to be rolled out soon. TNS
