UDHAMPUR, Dec 7: The people from Latti Tehsil of remote Dudu Sub-Division have demanded sanctioning of of a Govt Degree College (GDC) and a Kendriya Vidyalya (KV) in the area.
In a meeting of the Latti Development Committee (LDC) held under the chairmanship of Kasturi Lal Gupta, former Sarpanch, Latti, the members said that as promised by the Union Minister in PMO, Dr Jitendra Singh (MP, Udhampur-Doda), a Government Degree College and a KV be set up in Latti Tehsil.
They said during previous Lok Sabha elections, Dr Singh had publically declared setting of a Government College and a KV in the area for which the land has also been identified by the Revenue authorities with the help of locals. The much awaited sanction is now awaited.
They said even MLA Chenani, Balwant Singh Mankotia had also raised the issue of Degree College strongly in the J&K Legislative Assembly. The LDC members further reminded both the public representatives to address these long pending issues of the people of this Dudu Sub Division as early as possible.
They further demanded that the work on Dudu-Seoj Dhar road (32 kms ) connecting Ghar Katyas-Chill villages, which was abandoned after 4 kms stretch upto Tirdu by PMGSY authorities dew years ago, be resumed without any more delay. The necessary forest clearance be accorded and the road be connected with Bhaderwah after making allotment for the second phase of the project. This road will be very vital in defence point of view and will also provide direct connectivity to Kailash Kund Yatra on Seoj Dhar. Many pilgrims will also be benefitted with it. It may also help in containing militancy, they added.
