KISHTWAR, Dec 14: Senior Congress leader and MLA Inderwal, Ghulam Mohammad Saroori today launched scathing attack on the PDP-BJP Govt for pushing Jammu and Kashmir to wall by creating a situation of drift, showing insensitivity towards peoples’ aspirations and burning issues.
“Both the regions of Kashmir and Jammu are on boil because of the wrong policies of the coalition partners, which are serving complementary to each other,” Saroori said while addressing public meetings at Tatani area of Saroor in Tehsil Drabshalla of Inderwal constituency.
Saroori expressed serious concern over the erratic power supply and scarcity of essential commodities including ration/atta, sugar, hospital supplies and LPG in the Chenab region, and asked the administration to address the problems of the people especially who are braving biting cold in Kishtwar and Doda without power supply and ration.
The MLA said that the shortage of ration in hilly areas speaks volumes about the insensitivity and callousness of the authorities. He said there is shortage of ration especially rice, sugar and wheat/ flour in Government depots. He said the prevailing poor power supply has virtually left the life in Chenab region out of gear and the people faced tremendous hardships due non- availability of ration, sugar, kerosene and LPG.
He also urged upon the Govt to meet the hospital requirements and services for all specialty departments before the snowfall in this area.
Earlier, the Congress MLA inspected various developmental works in the area including Chalasu-Tatani road, work done under MGNEGA, SSA, IHHL, PHE water supply schemes and Middle School Piyakul- Saroor. He stressed on being more responsive to improve the education scenario and improving facilities for the students. He said the Govt school facilities should be developed at par with those available in private schools.
