A resolution of the Buddha Nullah pollution issue was the key among the five promises announced by the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) on Sunday as it officially launched its campaign for the upcoming municipal corporation elections. The party’s state president Aman Arora, accompanied by other senior leaders, announced the promises that included access to clean drinking water, a garbage-free city, 100 electric buses and four inter-state bus stands in the city. Arora assured the voters that these promises will be prioritised and implemented within an hour of an AAP mayor being installed. He highlighted what he said was the party’s commitment to transforming the city’s infrastructure, tackling pollution and the overall quality of life. Senior party leaders, local councillor candidates and supporters joined the event. The pollution in Buddha Nullah, which has historically been a major issue for the party, is the centrepeice of the AAP campaign for the elections slated on December 21. Blaming the other political parties for the problem, Arora underscored that the project will focus on stopping untreated sewage and industrial waste discharge into the canal, which has severely affected public health. He promised the use of advanced technology and strict regulations to restore Buddha Nullah to its natural. “Reviving Buddha Nullah is not just an environmental concern, but a matter of public health and dignity for Ludhiana,” Arora said. On the problem of scarcity of drinking water, Arora assured the locals that every household will receive clean and uninterrupted drinking water. He emphasised the need to modernise the water supply infrastructure, ensuring canal water is treated effectively to eliminate contamination. Arora pointed out that access to clean water is a fundamental right. On being asked about MLA Gurpreet Gogi, who had laid the foundation stone of a key project under the Buddha Nullah rejuvenation plan in 2022 and demolished that very stone on August 23 this year in ‘frustration over the poor performance’ of the departments involved in the project, Arora said that the MLA had taken the step in an ‘emotional state’. The AAP promised to tackle the rising pollution levels by introducing a fleet of 100 electric buses. Arora guaranteed solutions to waterlogging issues through advanced sewerage systems and drainage infrastructure. Traffic congestions, another major concern, will be addressed through modern road upgrades and the construction of four new bus stands, the party’s state chief said. On being asked about rejection of nomination papers of candidates from Opposition parties, he said that the government had nothing to do with it. The officials concerned have rejected the nominations of candidates who did not have the requisite documents, Arora added.Freelance photographer arrested on Capitol riot charges

(AP) — President-elect Donald Trump said Saturday he intends to nominate real estate developer Charles Kushner , father of Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner, to serve as ambassador to France. Trump made the announcement in a Truth Social post, calling Charles Kushner “a tremendous business leader, philanthropist, & dealmaker." Kushner is the founder of Kushner Companies, a real estate firm. Jared Kushner is a former White House senior adviser to Trump who is married to Trump’s eldest daughter, Ivanka. The elder Kushner was pardoned by Trump in December 2020 after pleading guilty years earlier to tax evasion and making illegal campaign donations. Prosecutors alleged that after Charles Kushner discovered his brother-in-law was cooperating with federal authorities in an investigation, he hatched a scheme for revenge and intimidation. Kushner hired a prostitute to lure his brother-in-law, then arranged to have the encounter in a New Jersey motel room recorded with a hidden camera and the recording sent to his own sister, the man’s wife, prosecutors said. Kushner eventually pleaded guilty to 18 counts including tax evasion and witness tampering. He was sentenced in 2005 to two years in prison — the most he could receive under a plea deal, but less than what Chris Christie, the U.S. attorney for New Jersey at the time and later governor and Republican presidential candidate, had sought. Christie has blamed Jared Kushner for his firing from Trump’s transition team in 2016, and has called Charles Kushner’s offenses “one of the most loathsome, disgusting crimes that I prosecuted when I was U.S. attorney.” Trump and the elder Kushner knew each other from real estate circles and their children were married in 2009.
