16-01-2024 (News Hunt)- The rapid development of the under-developed colonies, and early and proper delimitation of Wards before upcoming ULB elections is necessary to make “Jammu Smart City” stated BJP senior leader and former JMC Councillor Sanjay Kumar Baru while addressing, prominent residents of JMC Ward-32, Seora, Nandani and adjoining villages at Gol Gojral in Jammu west Assembly Constituency in the presence of former Sarpanches Raj Kumar Babbi, Sr. Avinash Singh and social leader Ramesh Bakshi.
