I have been noticing that people are not taking coronavirus seriously, which is the biggest concern. They must understand that the lockdown and curfew cannot be extended for too long, thus, they should start acting responsibly, then only we will be able to fight the virus properly.

There were several development projects in the pipeline which were not implemented due to the pandemic that has caused trouble everywhere. In these tough times, I am making sure that I meet people and listen to their grievances. I cannot stay inside and have to be on the forefront for people of my constituency. After all, they are the ones who have elected us.

I am visiting mandis to ensure that the procurement process is taking place in a proper manner. After morning walk for around an hour, I go to my office and then take a report on the disbursal of ration in every village of my constituency. For the same, I am taking the help from NRI brothers and other helping groups, to ensure availability of essentials, including eatables, for all.

I am continuously providing ration to needy people on a daily basis. My priority is to look after people of Shahkot and remain available for them 24×7.
