Sahnewal, March 29

Captain Sukhjit Singh Hara, a close associate of Chief Minister Captain Amarinder Singh, along with Gill constituency MLA, Kuldeep Singh Vaid, met the Chief Minister at his Chandigarh residence recently.

They apprised the Chief Minister of various problems of Gill and Sahnewal. The focus of the discussion was Sahnewal airport which has almost been abandoned due to a meager number of flights.

“I shared with Captain Amarinder Singh that Ludhiana based industrialists and business tycoons were facing a lot of problems. Foreign delegates reach Delhi but avoid visiting to Ludhiana for business meetings due to no flight connectivity. To finalise deals businessmen from Ludhiana have to go to Delhi, which is a major problem,” said Sukhjit Hara.

While accusing the SAD-BJP led government he said “Akali government just believed in showing off. The last government spent a huge amount of money for the aerodrome but it was all futile,” he added.

Kuldeep Singh Vaid also stated problems of drugs in his constituency. He made the Chief Minister aware about the number of ‘bastis’ in his constituency where drug menace was expected to be on higher side.

Vaid told that if he is given assistance by the Chief Minister as well as proper coordination was maintained with the police and public, he would be able to do solve the problem of drug addiction. Hara said that the Chief Minister assured that he would take personal interest in solving the problems.
