Citizens of Jalandhar are discussing the sops being offered to lure urban votes on the eve of Punjab Assembly elections.
Urban Punjabis Want
ELECTRICITY
Immediate abolition of " Commercial category " connection category . This they find both exploitative as well as humiliating. Even Urban business men have a right to earn their livelihoods.
End of cross subsidies
End Electricity Tax and Octroi ( Choongi ) on Electricity
PETROL
The price of petrol should be reduced to the price prevailing in the neighboring state of Haryana ( where it is nearly Rs. 7 cheaper per litre ) . Petrol in both states is sourced from same set of refineries.

Exemption of small cars ( like Maruti 800 and Nano ) from Toll Taxes on Toll Plazas.
