The residents of areas falling under Dhandra cluster would get facilities such as sewerage, roads, solar lights and other basic facilities. Besides, other development projects that were left incomplete due to shortage of funds, would also be completed under Shyama Prasad Mukherji Urban Mission.

The panchayats/villages/colonies included in Dhandra cluster include Mahmoodpura, Dhandra, Janta Colony Gill, Guru Nanak Nagar, Himmat Singh Nagar, Bhagat Singh Nagar, Shaheed Baba Deep Singh Nagar, Baba Deep Singh Nagar, Beri Colony Chauhan Nagar, Guru Nanak Nagar Dugri, Preet Vihar, Shaheed Bhagat Singh Nagar, Satjot Nagar, Basant Avenue, Janta Enclave, Rupan Nagar, Tera Nagar, Manakwal, Jasdev Singh Nagar, New Guru Teg Bahadur Nagar and Dev Nagar.

Mr Bittu stated that although these 21 panchayats/villages/colonies are located on the outskirts of Ludhiana city, but they were suffering on the development front as they have no ownership of any land or other source of income.
