Travelled to Jalandhar by road yesterday, must say that infra has improved a lot between Ludhiana and Jalandhar. In Punjab, the most prosperous, developing and vibrant region looks to be 22 KMs long Phagwara-Jalandhar City stretch due to lots of NRI investment and pumping of resources. It looks like one extended urban area. Jalandhar Cantt seems to be submerged in the center of both.
Actually Good that both Jalandhar and Phagwara got VB halts as they are contributing the most to Punjab state's treasury and economy.
Ludhiana...
more... seems to be stagnated and decayed city in many sections of GT Road.
Though the best part is all under construction flyovers on GT Road-Byepass of both Ludhiana and Jalandhar are complete and fully operational, thereby reducing the travel time by atleast 1 hour to Delhi.
