Issues on the voters’ list: Jobs, houses
expressindia.com
Chandigarh What are most important issues bothering the electorate this year? Affordable housing, employment opportunities for the youth, traffic management and the need for long-term planning.
These concerns have found a voice in the promises of political parties as well.
Congress candidate Pawan Kumar Bansal stresses on development of financial services. “I am not in favour of heavy industries being set up in the city. Rather, Chandigarh should be a corporate hub. The banking sector can be made stronger and with the development of the IT Park, employment opportunities are bound to increase in the city,” he says.
Traffic problems seem to clog the mind of BJP candidate Satya Pal Jain. “The city was designed for around 5 lakh people but now has a population of over 10 lakh. In order to manage the chaos in the city, it is imperative to establish the Metro. Multi-storeyed parking lots and flyovers are the need of the hour,” he says.
Additional floors over residential and commercial buildings is another sop on offer. Some perennial problems, including the extension of the Lal Dora, introduction of a balanced Rent Act, ownership rights to power of attorney holders in all categories, ownership rights for Type 13 houses and rehabilitation of slumdwellers, also find a place in the election manifestos every election.

Anti people policies of Congress responsible for Auto-strike, peoples harassment: Jain
VoteChandigarh.com
BJP candidate for Chandigarh Lok Sabha Constituency Mr Satya Pal Jain today held Congress leaders including the local MP responsible for the ongoing auto-rickshaw strike in Chandigarh Panchkula Mohali and said those who talk of development have neglected the need of good transport policies in the tri-city. He said the anti people policies of the Congress party and Congress leadership are responsible for the ongoing auto strike which has caused a great deal of harassment to the people, especially the school going children and office-goers.
During his padyatras in Maloya and Sector 20 Mr Jain assured people that on coming to power in the centre BJP will ensure that CTU runs environment friendly LPG fuelled buses in the Union territory and tri-city areas. He repeated his commitment to address the long term local transport needs of Chandigarh by providing for Metro, flyovers and underpasses for smooth flow of traffic and more parking facilities for the large and growing number of vehicles in the city.
He said Congress party and its leadership has been a failure on every front during its five years rule at the centre. Referring to the problems faced by Chandigarh Mr Jain said all promises of Congress party candidate during the last Lok Sabha elections remain unfulfilled. Whether it is the Balanced Rent act, or ownership of type 13 houses to occupants, or proper compensation for land to the farmers, or identity cards to footpath workers, or regularisation of houses outside laldora, or regularisation of need based internal changes in the housing board houses, or provision of affordable houses to middle and lower classes in the city or solving problems of rehabilitation colonies the Congress MP has not been able to solve any problem.

Comprehensive housing policy if elected: BJP
Expressindia
Chandigarh: “When voted to power, the BJP will have a comprehensive policy on housing for the city,” said party candidate for the forthcoming Lok Sabha elections, Satya Pal Jain, while addressing a media conference in the city on Thursday. “We will ensure that permission for additional floors is given. The city will have to grow vertically since there is limitation of space,” he said. He claimed that the houses being provided by the Chandigarh Housing Board are very expensive with even a two-room set costing over Rs 30 lakh. “We will make a policy for additional floors in the bay shops and booths that are single storey,” added Jain. The BJP candidate also promised regularisation of need-based changes in houses. “People have made certain changes within their houses, keeping in view the growing population. These should not be demolished. Similarly, the construction carried out by villagers outside the lal dora on their own land should be regularised,” said Jain.

NDA's candidate from the city for the forthcoming Lok Sabha elections Satya Pal Jain, accused the Congress-led UPA government for betraying the interests of farmers and villagers of the city through its five year term.
Addressing a public meeting at Khudda Alisher village today, Jain said while neighbouring Punjab has been paying upto Rs 1.5 crore per acre for land acquired for public purpose, Chandigarh villages have been suffering at the hands of the UPA government which has been doling out a mere Rs 10 to 18 lakh per acre to land owners in the UT.
Accusing the Union government of favouring the coloniser-builder class at the cost of the farmer villager, Jain said on coming to power, the NDA will give compensation for land in UT on a par with that being given by Punjab.
He added that the party will extend the lal dora limits of villages in the UT and will regularise construction in areas outside the lal dora limits, as against the ruling party. ...
