UDHAMPUR, June 21: Reiterating the demand to make Landar Pancheri Bhamag area as separate Assembly constituency, former MLA Balwant Singh Mankotia led a massive protest at Pancheri bus stand here today. He also visited Landar, Katti, Latiyar, Kultiyar, Pancheri & Meer during his 3- day long tour.
While addressing the media, Mankotia said that unless Landar Pancheri Bhamag is made a separate Assembly constituency, the area cannot develop because it is a far flung hilly area and comes under the three Assembly constituencies. “The time has come that all the people fight unitedly to get their rights,” he stressed.
Mankotia urged the members of De-Limitation Commission to visit this area and take the opinion of the locals who are deprived of even basic facilities of life. “If a Legislative Assembly can be constituted on 14 thousand voters in Gurez area of Kashmir, then why this hilly area whose voter is more than 40 thousand cannot be given a separate Legislative Assembly status?” he questioned
