JAMMU, Sept 25:- In order to inspect the situation of pilgrim tourist circuit areas including Balidaan Stambh, Har ki Pouri, Harbal Garden and Bagh-e- Bahu, a team of cong leaders comprising, working president JKPCC Raman Bhalla, former ministers Yogesh Sawhney, Yash Pal Kundal and others paid a visit here today.
During their visit, the working president JKPCC Raman Bhalla expressed grave concern over the deplorable conditions of the entire pilgrim tourist circuit area and held BJP responsible for this dilapidated situation.
Speaking on the occasion, Bhalla said, “BJP led dispensations totally neglected this pilgrim tourist circuit during past 11 years as a result it is in shambles today and has suffered extensive damage in the recent rains and floods, demanding immediate repairs, renovations and restoration.”
He said, “Governments and dispensations failed to carry out regular maintenence, repairs and upgradations in a decade turning it into a worst condition. The government and authorities at the helm of affairs failed to discharge their duties to the pilgrims, tourists and the local population by neglect of this vital project in Jammu city.”
Targeting BJP, the senior congress leaders blamed it of giving hollow slogans and false promises of beautification of Jammu city and outskirts and promoting pilgrim tourism and developing tourist destinations and spots, have proved to be utter failure.
They said BJP failed Jammu on every front and its tall claims of developments and smart city have been exposed in the recent rains and floods and people suffered a lot due to some manmade disasters too.
