JAMMU, Mar 12: Ishfaq-ur-Rehman Poswal, BJP leader and National executive member, ST Morcha, has urged Governor N N Vohra to allocate funds for Tribal Sub Plan (TSP) in forthcoming budget meeting as per the population of tribal people in the State.
In a letter to Vohra, Poswal regretted that due to dearth of funds the directorate of tribal affairs formed by Vohra for betterment of tribal people some years before, was unable to do anything and resultantly tribal people were facing immense hardships.
“I urge you to allocate funds in budget meeting on March 15, to the directorate of tribal affairs under the directions of NITI Ayog and as per population of tribal people which was formed by you in 2007 in the State. The tribal people mostly in border towns are facing immense hardships and need urgent attention in this forthcoming budget,” Poswal said.
