Nitin Kohli
In‑charge of Jalandhar Central for the Aam Aadmi Party and Vice President of Hockey India — bringing a hands‑on, service‑first approach to public life, and keeping government accountable to the people it serves.
A leader rooted in service, trust, and accountability
Nitin Kohli serves as the Aam Aadmi Party's In‑charge for the Jalandhar Central assembly constituency, a responsibility he took up in May 2025 in the presence of senior AAP leader Manish Sisodia. Since then, he has worked to make public service tangible for residents — most visibly through the Rama Mandi Public Service Centre, a walk‑in office built to put grievance redressal within reach of every household.
Alongside his political responsibilities, Kohli has long served Indian hockey as Vice President of Hockey India and President of Hockey Punjab, nurturing the sport at the grassroots across the state.
"The office will remain open to the public, and every issue brought forward will be taken seriously."— Nitin Kohli, on opening the Rama Mandi Public Service Centre
Kaam Ki Rajneeti — Politics of Work, Not Words
As Jalandhar Central's representative for the Aam Aadmi Party, Nitin Kohli's approach to public life is simple: listen first, act visibly, and measure success by problems actually solved rather than promises made. That means treating everyday civic basics as the real test of governance, and keeping a direct line open between residents and their representative — no middlemen, no waiting rooms.
Civic Infrastructure First
Roads, water supply, sewerage, and street lighting — the basics residents raise most often — treated as first-order priorities, not afterthoughts.
Accountable, Accessible Governance
A walk-in Public Service Centre and the Jan Samvad dialogue form put grievance redressal within reach of every resident, without layers of bureaucracy.
Investing in Youth & Sport
Continuing a long-standing commitment to grassroots hockey — coaching camps, player recognition, and pathways for young athletes across Punjab.

Real Work, Real Results in Jalandhar Central
Since taking charge in May 2025, here's a look at the ground-level work delivered across Jalandhar Central's wards.
High-Mast Lighting in Every Ward
New high-mast lights installed across Jalandhar Central's wards, brightening streets and improving safety after dark.

Serving Jalandhar Central
When Nitin Kohli joined the Aam Aadmi Party in May 2025, party leader Manish Sisodia welcomed the move as a sign of industry's confidence in AAP's governance. Kohli was entrusted with the Jalandhar Central assembly constituency, a responsibility he has approached with the same hands‑on style that built Tracer.
That commitment took physical shape with the opening of a dedicated Public Service Centre at Rama Mandi — a walk‑in office where residents can register grievances, get help navigating government departments, and follow up on the delivery of public schemes, without having to travel far from their neighbourhood.
