Dedicating a new sub-tehsil complex to the residents of Sham Chaurasi on Thursday, MLA Pawan Kumar Adia said this endeavour of the Punjab Government would provide different kinds of revenue services to the residents of more than 75 villages of the region.

While getting the sub-tehsil started, the MLA thanked Punjab Chief Minister Capt Amarinder Singh for fulfilling the long pending demand of the people of Sham Chaurasi constituency and said this project would prove a boon for the people as they need not to visit Hoshiarpur for property registration, mutation, fard, different certificates, affidavits as well as revenue cases etc.

Interacting with the mediapersons, Adia said the requisite staff and infrastructure would be ensured within minimum time so that people could get the needful services at the earliest. Answering a query, the MLA said the state government had given Rs 22 crore for the construction of a government college, which is being constructed over an area of 10 acres and is on the verge of completion. Similarly, sewerage project worth Rs 23 crore has been awarded for Hariana town in the constituency, which was another long pending demand of the area.

Meanwhile, Deputy Commissioner Apneet Riyait said naib tehsildar Bhunga had been deputed at the sub-tehsil for a temporary arrangement, who will sit a few days in week here for ensuring the requisite services. She said from the next week the sub-tehsil would become fully operational with the needful staff and other infrastructure.
