Punjab is Changing: New Facilities for Street Vendors at Jalalabad Market by Punjab Government
The Punjab government has built a new shared and covered market area for street vendors in Jalalabad under the leadership of Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann and MLA Jagdeep Kamboj Goldy.

National News: The Punjab government, led by Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann, is showing true 'work-based politics' at the local fruit and vegetable market in Jalalabad. Solving people’s problems quickly and effectively is the real meaning of 'work politics,' which MLA Sardar Jagdeep Kamboj Goldy has clearly shown through his actions in Jalalabad.
Better Facilities for Vendors
For many years, small traders and street vendors in Jalalabad faced many problems like traffic jams and working in tough weather. But now, things have improved. MLA Goldy has created a shared, safe, and comfortable space in the market that keeps the main roads clear. Vendors can now do their business easily under proper sheds, making their work much simpler. The project cost about ₹3 crore. Its foundation was laid in March 2024, and it has now been completed and opened for public use.
Basic Needs and Dignity Ensured
This project was not only about providing space. MLA Goldy also took care of important needs like bathrooms, clean drinking water through RO, cleanliness, and safety. The plan focuses on both comfort and the respect of the common people who earn their living here.
A Step Toward Real Change
Now, traffic moves smoothly, and vendors can work easily without worrying about rain, heat, or cold. Local people and visitors have expressed happiness and gratitude, saying, “We thank them for doing such great work for poor people. Everyone looks very happy.” This effort shows that the state government cares about people’s rights, comfort, and well-being. MLA Jagdeep Goldy’s quick action proves that leaders are now true servants of the public, not just politicians. The project will also boost the local economy and support other recent development works in Jalalabad, like water and canal system improvements worth ₹28 crore. The new Jalalabad market is a clear example of the Aam Aadmi Party’s people-centered approach that truly improves lives. It shows that the government not only talks but also works for the people every day. Punjab is truly changing because now, work speaks louder than words. This is not just talk—it is a real change that is improving lives.
