Ludhiana Municipal Corporation to Elect Two Finance Committee Members After Court Order
The Ludhiana Municipal Corporation will elect two councillors to the Finance and Contracts Committee (F CC) following a court order quashing previous nominations of two MLAs' sons. The election, scheduled for August 25, involves candidates from Congress (Gaurav Bhatti), BJP (Ruchi Gulati), and AAP backing the same nominees as before, Aman Bagga and Yuvraj Sidhu. The F CC plays a key role in financial and development decisions, and the election will be videographed to ensure transparency amid political contestation.
