Amritsar: Parkash Singh Badal to inaugurate ‘Heritage Street’ today

Watch what else is making news:

“This is the first phase of my vision to create a heritage street on the pattern of Europe. In the second phase, if re-elected, all roads leading to Golden temple from Hall Gate will be redone on the same pattern within a year and a half,” he said.

J S Sodhi, Executive Engineer, Public Works Department, Amritsar who was incharge of the project, told The Indian Express the “record time” in which the Heritage Street was completed. “We worked round the clock to ensure that this street is completed in less than a year. Otherwise, such a project would have easily taken more than two years. We engaged the best teams of architects and consultants,” he said.
