Further intensifying the ongoing election campaign for the Ludhiana (West) Assembly bypoll, Rajya Sabha MP and Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) candidate Sanjeev Arora held a well-attended poll meeting at BRS Nagar here today. The event witnessed an enthusiastic turnout from local residents and party supporters.
Addressing the gathering, Arora engaged with the people and highlighted the progressive policies and public welfare programmes of the AAP-led Punjab government under Chief Minister Bhagwant Singh Mann. He spoke in detail about the government's achievements in key areas such as education, healthcare, employment, infrastructure, and investment.
Arora made special mention of the state’s ongoing anti-drug initiative ‘Yudh Nashiyan De Virudh’, terming it a crucial step in eradicating the drug menace from society. He also spoke about the Sadak Surakhya Force (SSF), describing it as a life-saving service that has become a boon for road accident victims.
Highlighting his own contribution as a parliamentarian, Arora presented his three-year development report card. He listed major infrastructure projects including the Halwara Airport, elevated road, construction of four new bridges on the Sidhwan Canal, 700 parking lots, and cycle track.

Appealing to voters, the ministers and other party leaders encouraged everyone to press the “broom” symbol on No.1 in the EVM on June 19 and elect Sanjeev Arora for sustained development.
