This manifesto has been crafted through public consultations, ensuring a people-centric approach. Arora assured that all initiatives would start without any delays, reflecting the party’s emphasis on transparency and accountability in governance.
The five key commitments for Jalandhar include: 100 electric buses with charging infrastructure in the city; a continuous supply of drinking water; expansive parking facilities equipped with CCTV surveillance; the removal of 28 waste dumps to ensure a cleaner and healthier city environment; and the restoration of sports heritage with the establishment of sports memorials and the revival of significant sports sites like Burton Park.

The introduction of 100 electric buses will address pollution issues and enhance public transport services.
