JAMMU: Senior BJP leader Sonam Aulakh today inaugurated Baiyant Kitchen, a new food outlet located at Sidhra Highway near 39 Bakers. The eatery, owned by Mahinder Pal Singh, offers a wide range of both vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes at affordable prices. Singh stated that while the rates are reasonable, the quality of food and service matches that of a five-star hotel. 

During the inauguration, Aulakh lauded Mahinder Pal Singh’s entrepreneurial initiative, calling it a positive sign for both the economy and society. He emphasized that such ventures not only empower the business owners but also create job opportunities for others, contributing to overall economic development. 

Aulakh highlighted how these efforts align with Prime Minister Narendra Modi's vision of a self-reliant India (Atmanirbhar Bharat). ā€œToday’s youth are not solely dependent on government jobs. They are stepping forward with innovation and confidence, building successful businesses and offering employment to many,ā€ he said. 

The event marks a celebration of entrepreneurship, skill, and the spirit of self-sufficiency, showcasing the growing trend among the younger generation to lead from the front in diverse business ventures. Baiyant Kitchen is expected to become a popular food destination in the area, providing quality meals and contributing to local employment.

A brilliant mind who studied at Netarhat Residential School and graduated in Electrical Engineering from IIT Kharagpur before earning his PhD from the University of Maryland, Dr. Ranjan chose to return to India and dedicate his life to teaching, research and social good.
