All you need to know about Ward 94 – Gandhi Nagar

94 – Gandhi Nagar

 

The busiest area at the heart of the city with railway station, bus stations and metro stations, Gandhinagar ward perennially suffers from traffic problems and pollution. New constructions of multi-storeyed buildings only add to the chaos. The area is expected to become more congested, with the upcoming work of Okulipuram 8-lane road. There are significant numbers of transgenders living in this part of the city, but the registered voter number is only 1 for that category. More information on the ward:
