Besides, he also announced an additional grant of Rs 10 crore for the development works of Panchkula.
Addressing the ceremony, Saini said these two projects would be milestones in the development of Panchkula. He expressed pride that the foundation stones for these projects were laid on International Youth Day, and emphasised that they would ensure a bright future for the youth.
