Jakhar asks Modi to announce spl package for Punjab, industrial project for Gurdaspur during his visit

Chandigarh, Jan 1 (UNI) Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee (PPCC) President and MP Sunil Jakhar has urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to announce a special package for the border state and a major industrial project for Gurdaspur during his visit to the district on Wednesday.
In a statement here on Tuesday, the PPCC president said that despite the poor track record of the BJP and its Prime Minister in keeping their promises, people still expected Modi to announce something substantial for the state.
“We have over 1000 acres of land in Kalanaur, Gurdaspur, which we are willing to give for any industrial project that can generate employment for the youth of the border district,” said Jakhar, adding that the Prime Minister should also consider announcing some industrial concessions for the border districts on the lines of the freight equalisation policy.
