AMRITSAR SAHIB (July 18, 2013)–In a proposed plan to “further face-lift the beauty of Sri Amritsar†Sahib, the State Government has announced that golden entrance gates would be installed at all four major entrances of the city.  The decision was announced by CM Parkash Badal who shared that the gates would cost Rs. 300 million.
The design of the gate symbolizes the domes of Sri Harmandir Sahib and has been proposed by Guru Nanak Dev University. Â Special flood lights and landscaping will be done next to these gates.
The first gate would be installed at the Amritsar-Jallandhar road and the plans have already been passed by the State Government. Â The gate would be raised at the cost of Rs. 70 million. The rest of the gates would be raised at Amritsar-Attari, Amritsar-Batala and Amritsar-Tarn Taran roads.
While the State Government is spending a huge budget to install these gates, it also needs to pay attention to other growing concerns in Amritsar Sahib, especially that of pollution and uncleanliness. Â Strict laws need to be passed and stressed by local authorities to keep the city clean.
