Key inaugurated projects include the ₹7.32 crore Banjar bypass and bridge, a ₹1.38 crore bridge at Manglour on NH-305, and multiple lift water supply schemes such as the ₹2.80 crore project covering Tinda Sharan, Bijohi, and nearby villages. Other notable projects include a ₹2.06 crore drinking water scheme under the Har Ghar Nal Se Jal program, a ₹2.80 crore multi-level parking facility at Banjar bus stand, and a ₹1.35 crore modern science laboratory at Sainj.

Foundation stones were laid for major road and bridge works, including the ₹4.73 crore Johal Jeshta Ashni Puin road, ₹4.65 crore Jawal Tinda–Seri Bella Beogi road, and a ₹7.11 crore bridge over the Tirthan river. Several single-span steel truss bridges over Sainj khad, with investments of ₹6.20 crore and ₹5.82 crore, were also initiated.
