JAMMU, Mar 1: The PDP member from Kishtwar area alleged that over 6000 Solar cookers were distributed among the NC workers in district Kishtwar despite assurance by the Government in the House.
The issue was raised by Sayed Asgar Ali from PDP soon after the House started Question Hour today. The PDP member alleged that Solar cookers in the district were distributed in the district on the behest of the NC leaders and in sheer violations of the rules. The public representatives were ignored and despite assurance in the House by the Government, sanctity is not being maintained.
The PDP member sought directions from the ‘Chair’ in this regard and also pressed for constitution of a House Committee for the purpose.
Minister incharge Planning and Development Ajay Sadhotra stood up and assured the members that Government would look into the matter. As the member strongly pressed and raised these serious allegations that this has happened in Kishtwar and NC members were showered favours, the MoS Home and Industry Sajjad Kishloo (NC), who hails from Kishtwar stood up and said that a committee headed by Deputy Commissioner was monitoring this all and nothing such has happened.
The member got agitated and claimed that he would bring privileged motion. The Chairman said that Government has already responded into the matter and the member is free to move privileged motion.
