Projects fail to see light of day even in 2012
Ludhiana, December 30 During the year, the officials of the Ludhiana Municipal Corporation as well as the Public Works Department (PWD) had claimed that these projects would be completed by 2012-end, but the same old story of delays continues. Lakkar Bridge
State PWD Minister Sharanjit Singh Dhillon had claimed on July 16 that the Lakkar Bridge project would be complete by December 31, but the project is still far from being completed. The project got delayed due to the slow pace of work on part of the Railways. Though the up ramps and down ramps have been constructed on both sides of the bridge, construction on the railway land is yet to be completed. Indoor Stadium
It was claimed that the first phase of the Indoor Stadium being constructed on the Pakhowal Road would be completed by August, but work on the project, launched in 2004, still goes on. The construction of the stadium on a piece of land (playground of a government school) started in 2004 when senior IAS officer Sukhbir Singh Sandhu was posted here as MC Commissioner. At that time its cost was pegged at Rs 16 crore. Construction was stalled in 2007, and resumed in May, 2010. The delay in the completion of the project has raised its estimated cost from Rs 16 crore to Rs 25.89 crore. Sidhwan Canal Expressway
The foundation stone for the Sidhwan Canal Expressway project was laid in 2009. The Rs 328.16-crore four-lane expressway of more than 26.9 km will have a carriageway on either side to provide a bypass for traffic going towards Ferozepur.
Low-floor non-AC buses
Similarly, another lot of 30 low-floor non-AC buses was to reach the city before the end of 2012. A few days back, it was claimed that of these 30 buses, 11 buses would reach the city before December 31. But, the buses are still parked in the regional sales office of the Tata company, near Chandigarh. MAYORSPEAK
Mayor Harcharan Singh Gohalwaria claims that the completion of the ongoing development projects is among his priorities. "The Lakkar Bridge project got delayed due to the delay on the part of the Railways while the remaining projects would be completed soon," claimed Gohalwaria.

Ludhiana, December 30 The group said, “Since women in Ludhiana are actively involved in all spheres of social and professional life, they need to be provided with the full support of the administration and society on whole.

Watch your steps on city roads
Ludhiana, December 30 Last month, the MC had uprooted several trees located in the middle of roads or those which were posing threat to motorists, but till date, the roads have not been repaired, which are slowly turning into death traps as the size of the potholes is increasing with each passing day. At a spot opposite Union Information and Broadcasting Minister Manish Tewari's house on Pakhowal road, a tree was uprooted by the MC. Ludhiana Municipal Corporation officials despite the orders of Mayor Harcharan Singh Gohalwaria have not repaired the road till date. Several ditches and potholes are a common sight on several parts of the city, besides in some parts, garbage bins and iron bins are also lying in the middle or along the dividers, posing danger to the lives of motorists. Despite the fact that many people have already fallen victim to such deathtraps yet the civic body has not paid any heed to the safety of residents. Mayor Harcharan Singh Gohalwaria said he had already issued orders that all such spots should be repaired as soon as possible by the Bridges and Roads (B&R) branch of
the MC. “If such spots have not been repaired, I will again ask the MC officials to repair them on a priority basis because the safety of city residents is my utmost responsibility," said the mayor.

The much-hyped 933.162-metre-long Lakkar Bridge project has been hanging fire since 1997. It is a clear reflection of the sad state of affairs in the state government as well as the Railways that even after 15 years a civic project, which was aimed at reducing traffic congestion in the city, remains incomplete. Ironically, even the cost of the project has escalated from Rs 13 crore to Rs 58 crore now.
The project has a total of nine bridges, including five canal bridges, two rail over bridges and two flyovers. Earlier, this project was to be completed by October, 2012, and now the deadline of the project has been pushed further to March, 2013.
Ludhiana December 30
