Haryana Agriculture and Farmers' Welfare Minister Shyam Singh Rana asked officers of the Municipal Corporation, Yamunanagar-Jagadhri (MCYJ), to speed up development works.

At a meeting with officers of the MCYJ in Yamunanagar, he said they should take the development works and projects being done in the MCYJ area as their top priority.

He discussed in detail the foundation stone-laying ceremony of the open air theatre and auditorium, which is to be built by the MCYJ in Sector-17 of Jagadhri at a cost of Rs 52.87 crore.
