Doda, Nov 16: R&B Minister Abdul Majid Wani, today said that people of Doda constituency are fully empowered and they are proud citizens.
This could be possible, only, with his hard work and support of Ghulam Nabi Azad and other leaders at centre during UPA-I and UPA-II. Prior to 2002, people of Doda were forgotten souls. Even basic infrastructural facilities including basic civic amenities like schools, health centers, safe hygienic drinking water facilities and road connectivity were inadequate. Condition of people living in far flung rural areas was the worst.
Mr Wani said that after getting elected as MLA from Doda constituency during year 2002 Assembly elections, it remained his mission to work day and night for providing not only the best civic amenities but also to get sanctioned major infrastructural projects for Doda. Today, Doda is on the path of growth, development and prosperity. People are fully empowered with establishment of successful Panchayati Raj system and creation of new tehsils, niabats and blocks.
Mr Wani, further, said that now his main focus shall be only to make Doda constituency among the best tourist destinations in J&K state. Wani said he has already taken a long leap to achieve this mission by getting sanctioned new tourist development authorities, an alternative National Highway connecting Chenani with Anantnag via Marmat and Dessa in Doda and sanctioning of Sudh Mahadev Goha & Dessa Capran tunnels. Batote Doda Kishtwar Sinthan top highway has been got transferred from GREF to the state R&B department which will generate vast employment opportunities for local youth.
