Uttarakhand CM Dhami Inaugurates Jugmandar Hall Revamp

Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami inaugurated the renovation and restoration of Jugmandar Hall at the Dehradun Municipal Corporation, a project executed at a cost of Rs 23.2 million (mn) aimed at preserving the city's cultural heritage. He also laid the foundation stone for a canal at the ABC Centre in Kedarpuram and announced the development and beautification of parks at six locations within the municipal area.

The chief minister described the state government as pursuing a vision of development along with heritage and indicated that urban areas are being modernised under national missions such as Swachh Bharat, AMRUT, Smart City and Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana to enhance cleanliness, water supply, sewerage, green spaces and housing for the economically weaker sections. He attributed the drive to central leadership and outlined efforts to integrate heritage conservation with infrastructure growth.

Officials said that more than Rs 14 billion (bn) in development projects are underway to transform Dehradun, including a mechanised waste transfer station and an Integrated Command and Control Centre for real-time monitoring of garbage collection. The municipal administration reported the development of 35 parks, including a yoga-themed park in Kedarpuram and memorial parks for martyrs, together adding over 50,000 square metres of green space. Recharge pits are being built to conserve water, and 30 electric buses are now operational with 11 EV charging stations across the city. The city has been ranked 19th nationally under the National Clean Air Programme.

Transport projects include the Delhi-Dehradun Expressway, due to be inaugurated soon by the prime minister, which is expected to improve connectivity, and plans are in place for elevated roads over the Rispana and Bindal rivers to ease congestion. The municipal corporation's revenue collection rose from Rs 520 mn to Rs 730 mn and door-to-door waste vehicles increased from 190 to nearly 300. The government reiterated its commitment to prevent encroachment on public land and urged citizens to safeguard communal assets.
