Old buildings to be redeveloped: GS Sandhu

Jaipur: In a meeting chaired by UDH Advisor GS Sandhu here on Friday, it was decided to redevelop the old buildings situated in the prime locations of the major cities of the state. To start with, Nehru Place on Tonk Road in the city will first be taken up for redevelopment.
