“Every promise of mine to the residents during my election campaign will be fulfilled but in a phased manner,” she said while kick starting the tile work in Sector “C” of Sainik Colony worth Rs 7 lakhs.
The plantation drive by the Urban Forestry Department is progressing smoothly. The aim of plantation drive is to make Sainik Colony a green zone of Smart city of Jammu.
“The Sainik Colony Cooperative House Building Society to which the residents are paying development and transfer charges should be proactive in resolving day to day problems of residents. The Society has not allotted space for office to corporator despite my numerous requests. The work sanctioned for the office lapsed because Society failed to provide “No Objection Certificate’’, she said.
