JAMMU, May 3: Uday Bhanu Chib president Youth Congress Jammu and Kashmir along with Hari Singh Chib President DCC Jammu Rural conducted a public meeting at Bajuian Nardani falling in Jammu North here this evening. The meeting was conducted to take stock of people’s problems and issues.
The residents highlighted their woes in this scorching summer mainly pertaining to power and water scarcity that has made life hell for the people. They also expressed dismay over the dilapidated condition of the lanes in Nardani and Bajuian besides the poor road condition across the area. They alleged that PHE Rural Division is not showing any serious concern towards addressing their problems on account of water scarcity.
Hari Singh Chib and Uday Chib after giving a patient hearing to the people assured them of taking up their issues with the concerned authorities and getting these addressed at the earliest. However, they also asked the people to make judicious use of water and electricity in this early summer’s scorching heat.
Chib in his address on the occasion said that it is quite unfortunate that despite knowing fully that during summer the water sources become scanty in summers leading to power shortage and water scarcity, the UT administration has miserably failed to come up with some contingency plan or a permanent solution thus leaving the people in utter chaos. He said that there is a proxy governance in J&K and therefore despite making tall claims of unprecedented development, the ground realities clearly expose the failure of Govt at the Centre as well as the UT administration.
Uday Chib, while terming the BJP Govt as a ‘Jumla Govt’ accused it of promising the moon to the people and delivering a big zero, He said that it is because of the wrong policies of the Govt that people across the nation are suffering haplessly. He said that it is really an irony that the region of J&K that produces hydro-power through multiple projects has to face power shortage at the time when it is required the most.
