Managed Mohali’s traffic congestion problems: Balbir Sidhu

He said during his tenure as Mohali MLA, he chalked out a concrete plan to rid Mohali of the ever-increasing traffic problems. To check fatal road accidents due to stray cattle, especially during night, a cow shed was also set up on 10 acres in Balongi village, the sitting MLA said.
‘Congress MLA ignored villages’
