ASSESSING KIRRON KHER'S PERFORMANCE AS CHANDIGARH'S MP
The Daily Guardian
|January 30, 2024
Built with perfect planning, the city of Chandigarh is popular for its Punjabi culture. The city of Chandigarh was designed by a French architect. It is believed that the name Chandigarh is derived from 'Chandi Ka Kila.' Chandigarh is a Union Territory, surrounded by Punjab, Haryana, and Himachal Pradesh from three sides. Additionally, it serves as the capital for both Haryana and Punjab.

The political temperature here always remains high. Currently, the renowned actress and BJP leader Kirron Kher represents the city as a Member of Parliament. The city's foundation was laid in 1952, and it is famous for its wide roads. Although the roads are still broad, the increasing population has also made its impact on the city.
From Sukhna Lake to Rock Garden, Chandigarh is famous worldwide. The city has produced several prominent cricketers, from Kapil Dev to Yuvraj Singh. Additionally, high-profile MPs have consistently emerged from here. The Chandigarh Lok Sabha seat is always in discussions, and even more so are the candidates contesting this seat.
Once again, the atmosphere is gearing up for discussions about the Chandigarh Lok Sabha seat and its candidates. Two new candidates are coming into discussion for the Chandigarh Lok Sabha seat, creating a buzz in the city's electoral arena. It is believed that actress Kangana Ranaut from BJP and actress Parineeti Chopra from Congress may be fielded in the electoral battle.
Predicting voters' trust this time is difficult. As far as development is concerned, the pace of development in Chandigarh has been rapid, thanks to the central administration, making law and order appear significantly better here. However, for several years, the public has been complaining about corruption in the name of development.
Despite being a beautiful Lok Sabha seat, Chandigarh has its share of local issues.
