JAMMU, Feb 10: Congress has sought a major review of the Delimitation report to reverse the avoidable disruptions and disturbances in several constituencies on a massive scale, just to create seven constituencies in the order to save the public from undue inconvenience.
In a statement, JKPCC said that to avoid the undue and avoidable inconvenience to the public likely to be caused by massive overhauling and reallocation of areas in most assembly constituencies, the Commission has committed glaring irregularities which need to be reviewed before the draft report is made public.
Questioning the re-allocation of areas in most constituencies on a massive scale just to create seven more seats, the party said that the ground situations and geographical realities, means of communication and connectivity and several other norms have been ignored.
“In the absence of Legislative Assembly, the broader political representation is missing in the Commission so it would be in the fitness of things and all fairness that the Commission undertakes a detailed exercise of taking views and inputs about the physical situations on ground and review the report before going public, “ said JKPCC chief spokesperson Ravinder Sharma.
There is genuine resentment and unrest in several areas because of irregularities and neglect of their aspirations in their respective area and it will further deepen in the days to come. So, a review of the proposed report would save the situation and address the genuine concerns, as the report in present form is not acceptable to the general public in most of areas of Jammu and Kashmir.
He referred to the illogical and unjustified divisions of areas in District Rajouri especially in Sunderbani, Kalakote whereby unnatural division of Sunderbani has been done. The views of public of affected areas should be heard before any further action.
