Panchkula MC poll: BJP, Cong step up campaign

Panchkula, December 17

Haryana Speaker and local MLA Gian Chand Gupta, while campaigning for the BJP’s mayoral candidate, Kulbhushan Goyal, today trained guns at state Congress chief Kumari Selja, questioning her on what she did when she was an MP for 10 years.

Addressing a press conference, Gupta lauded the “developmental works” undertaken by the BJP government in Panchkula, stating that these would go in favour of party candidate Goyal and he would win by a huge margin.

Gupta asked former Mayor and Congress candidate Upinder Kaur Ahluwalia to count five things which “she may have done” during her stint as the Mayor of Panchkula.

Meanwhile, Chander Mohan, former Haryana Deputy Chief Minister, said, “During her last stint as Mayor, Ahluwalia served with full dedication. Her long experience and capability to carry out work make her the obvious choice for the post of Panchkula Mayor.”

“Everyone is aware of her work ethics with no compromise when it comes to development and the welfare of the general public,” he said.

He was addressing a public rally at the Sector 21 market here during the inauguration of a poll office of Naveen Bansal, party candidate from Ward No. 13.

Stressing the need for hard work at the grassroots level, Chander Mohan said a united effort was needed to win the MC poll with a thumping majority. He, along with Ahluwalia, also released Navin’s poll manifesto.

Addressing the meeting, Ahluwalia said she was committed to developing both urban and rural areas. — TNS
