Strong warning in the meeting of Corporation House in Ludhiana: If the city is not illuminated in 15 days, then the agreement with Tata will be broken 7 years ago, infrastructure will be checked on Saturday

Officials present in the all-party meeting of Ludhiana Municipal Corporation.

The issue of street lights in Ludhiana city is once again raging. In an all-party meeting on Thursday, the councilors have unanimously decided that if the entire LED lights are not lit in the city in fifteen days, the municipal corporation will break the agreement made with Tata. Apart from this, it was decided in the meeting that their infrastructure would be checked on Saturday and no bill would be passed on this day.

Let us tell you that 7 years ago, the Tata company was given the project to install LED lights in the city. The current situation is that there is a demand to terminate the contract with the company. Councilor Mamta Ashu alleges that the lights have not been installed in the entire city by the company and even here they are not burning properly. Those who are burning, their light is not complete and neither are their angles properly engaged. Now when people are coming to the councilors with complaints, an all-party meeting was called by the mayor.

Company claims – completed
Meanwhile, the company has claimed during the meeting that a survey was conducted on their behalf to install 1 lakh 5 thousand lights and the lights have been installed. Not only this, lights have also been installed in some places.

Councilors rejected the claim
As soon as the company officials made this claim, the councilors of all the parties opposed it. Mamta Ashu said that when a new road is being built from Samrala Chowk to Octroi and lights are being installed there by NHI and lights are being installed under the Smart City project too, then where has Tata installed the lights.

Now delay will not be tolerated, Tata should give results in due time
Mayor Balkar Singh Sandhu says that now late lateness will not be tolerated. During the Corona period, he was giving concession due to labor going away, but now if the lights are not installed in the entire city on his behalf in fifteen days, then the agreement with the company will be canceled by calling a house meeting.

Thankfully other councilors also started seeing flaws: Mamta
Councilor Mamta Ashu says that she is already raising this issue. Thankfully, now other councilors have started seeing this problem as well. The decision has been taken in the meeting and now the agreement will have to be canceled by calling a meeting of the House.

All councilors are sad, need to take tough decisions: Dung
Harbhajan Singh Dung, leader of SAD in Municipal Corporation, says that if there are 95 MLAs in the city, then 80 of them are against it, so a decision has to be taken. Time has been given in today’s meeting and after that it has been agreed to cancel the agreement by convening a meeting of the House.
