Solar-powered LED street lights were inaugurated in Gobindgarh village, SAS Nagar Mohali, on 12 July 2026, marking another important milestone in strengthening rural infrastructure and improving public safety. The project was inaugurated by Member of Parliament Malwinder Singh Kang under the Member of Parliament Local Area Development Scheme (MPLADS) with the objective of providing better illumination, enhancing security, and promoting the use of clean and renewable energy across the village.
MLA Kulwant Singh attended the inauguration programme along with local residents, community leaders, and public representatives. The newly installed solar LED street lights are expected to significantly improve visibility during night hours, making village roads safer for pedestrians, commuters, and local residents. Besides strengthening public safety, the project also promotes environmentally sustainable development through the use of energy-efficient infrastructure that reduces dependence on conventional electricity.

The interaction further strengthened communication between the administration and the community while helping identify priorities for future development.
The installation of solar-powered street lights reflects the Punjab Government’s continued emphasis on sustainable infrastructure and balanced rural development. Along with ongoing investments in roads, healthcare, education, sanitation, drinking water supply, and other public utilities, renewable energy initiatives such as solar lighting are contributing to the creation of safer, cleaner, and environmentally responsible villages across SAS Nagar Mohali.
Speaking on the occasion, MLA Kulwant Singh said that quality public infrastructure and well-lit streets play a vital role in ensuring the safety, convenience, and overall well-being of residents.
