Jammu, Nov 11: Addressing a long-standing public amenity demand of semi-urban residents, Member of the Legislative Assembly (MLA) for Jammu West, Arvind Gupta, has formally allocated a capital grant of Rs 24.90 lakh from his Constituency Development Fund (CDF) for the construction of the Radha Krishna Community Hall at Pouni Chak.
The institutional initiative, spearheaded under the auspices of the Radha Krishna Sewa Parishad, aims to establish a spacious, multipurpose civic hall equipped with modern amenities. Once completed, the complex will offer an affordable, dignified venue for local community weddings, religious discourses, cultural festivals, and social family congregations, sparing middle- and lower-income families the burden of renting expensive private banquet facilities.
Speaking at a ceremonial site dedication in Pouni Chak, Gupta asserted that his legislative focus remains anchored on grassroots development, equitable civic provisioning, and upgrading social infrastructure across all wards and peripheral rural belts of the Jammu West constituency. “Community infrastructure plays an indispensable role in fostering social cohesion, bringing neighborhood communities together, and providing accessible public spaces at the local level,” the legislator noted.
The dedication ceremony was attended by prominent civic figures and community elders, including former Deputy Mayor Dharam Veer Singh Jamwal, Mandal President Anil Angral, local religious figure Mridul Ji Maharaj, alongside management committee members of the Radha Krishna Sewa Parishad, who conveyed gratitude for the timely financial intervention.
