Ludhiana : Punjab Housing and Urban Development Minister Hardeep Singh Mundian held a meeting on Monday with officials from the Greater Ludhiana Area Development Authority (GLADA).
He emphasized the importance of completing development-focused projects on time and ensuring transparency in operations to better serve the public.
Upon his arrival at the GLADA office, the Minister was welcomed by GLADA Chief Administrator Harpreet Singh, Additional Chief Administrator Vineet Kumar, Estate Officer Aman Gupta, and other officials.
The Minister stressed the need for a zero-tolerance policy regarding negligence and laxity in duty performance. He mentioned that the Punjab Government, under Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann, is committed to providing clean, corruption-free, and transparent governance.
During the review of development projects carried out by the Engineering Wing, Mundian directed the officers to complete all tasks within the specified timeframe, giving priority to those that are pending.
He also insisted that there should be no construction of illegal colonies within the jurisdiction and urged officials to take strict action against offenders.
