Garhshankar: Continuing the development of Sri Anandpur Sahib Lok Sabha constituency, Manish Tewari, Member Parliament and former Union Minister laid the foundation stone for the construction of a bridge at village Dhada Kalan and Dhada Kalan Choe in Dhada Khurd.

Addressing the people on the occasion, MP Tewari said that development of the constituency is his priority.

A 1.07 km long high-level bridge would be constructed at a cost of about Rs. 2.67 crore on the choe between Dhada Kalan and Dhada Khurd, which was a long pending demand of the people of the area. He emphasized that he is aware of some other issues related to the constituency which would be resolved soon with the help of former MLA Love Kumar Goldy. He said that for the last one and half years due to Corona epidemic the priority of the state government has been to save the lives of the people.
