MC president Naresh Mahajan claims he has received just Rs 2.86 crore while Rs 100 crore is actually needed to rebuild the potholed, broken and accident-prone roads. “Keeping in view the birth celebrations, Sultanpur Lodhi was given Rs 500 crore and Dera Baba Nanak Rs 100 crore. However, we were sanctioned just Rs 5 crore out of which we have received Rs 2.86 crore. The repair and construction of the roads falling within the town’s limits is the responsibility of the MC. Former councillor Harinder Singh said Jakhar had given grants from his MPLAD funds and work on reconstructing a few roads had actually started.
