Haphazard growth has left Kharar, Kurali, and Nayagaon grappling with broken roads, choked sewerage and traffic jams
Kharar : Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Punjab State Media Head and Mukh Sewadaar for Kharar Assembly constituency Vineet Joshi today asserted that the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) cannot escape accountability for ten years of governance failure, unplanned urban sprawl, and collapse of basic civic amenities in Kharar merely by changing its candidate ahead of every Assembly election.
Reacting to AAP’s decision to drop sitting MLA Anmol Gagan Maan and field Parminder Singh Goldy for the 2027 Assembly polls, Joshi pointed out a clear pattern of evasion.
“In 2017, AAP fielded Kanwar Sandhu, and to cover up the failures of his tenure, replaced him with Anmol Gagan Maan in 2022. Now, for 2027, Anmol Gagan Maan has been dropped in favour of Parminder Goldy,” Joshi said. “Repeatedly cancelling the tickets of its own sitting legislators is an admission by AAP that it has zero confidence in its government’s track record. Bringing in a new face every five years proves the party itself is dissatisfied with its representatives—yet the people of Kharar want to know who will take responsibility for a decade of neglect?”
Joshi emphasized that residents of Kharar no longer want the politics of cosmetic face-changing, but demand accountability, transparency, and real grassroots development.
*‘Collapse of Basic Civic Amenities Across Kharar, Kurali, and Nayagaon’*
Highlighting the civic crisis across the rapidly expanding constituency in Mohali district, Joshi stated that infrastructure has failed completely to keep pace with unchecked residential expansion. Residents of Kharar, Kurali, Nayagaon, and adjoining colonies face daily misery due to chronic traffic bottlenecks, dilapidated roads, overflowing sewerage, shortage of clean drinking water, waterlogging, and broken drains.
He added that government hospitals and healthcare facilities have not been expanded in proportion to the growing population, government school infrastructure requires urgent strengthening, and acute shortages of parking spaces, functional streetlights, sanitation, and sports facilities for youth continue to plague the constituency.
