KISHTWAR, Dec 11: Leader of Opposition (LoP), Sunil Sharma, undertook two-day extensive tour of Paddar and Gandhari areas of the Paddar-Nagseni Assembly constituency in Kishtwar, accompanied by senior officials of the district administration.
His visit focused on reviewing ongoing developmental works, assessing public concerns, and ensuring timely execution of projects in the remote region.
During the tour, Sunil Sharma conducted a comprehensive inspection of various development projects currently under execution. These included road connectivity upgrades, water supply works, school infrastructure improvements, and health-care-related facilities. He emphasized the need for strict adherence to quality standards and directed the concerned departments to expedite pending works that are crucial for improving the lives of people in the far-flung belts of Paddar and Gandhari.
Sharma also held a series of public darbars at multiple places, providing a platform for residents to raise their issues directly. People highlighted concerns related to road connectivity, drinking water shortages, erratic electricity supply, and gaps in basic amenities.
The Leader of Opposition instructed the senior officials accompanying him to take immediate and effective measures to address genuine grievances. He further stressed the importance of transparent communication between departments and the local people to ensure accountability and timely resolution of problems.
As part of the review, Sharma took detailed stock of the distribution of solar lights, a key initiative aimed at supporting households in remote villages that continue to face power supply challenges. He directed officials to ensure that the distribution process remains fair, need-based, and fully documented, so that benefits reach all eligible families without delay.
Sharma reaffirmed his commitment to regularly visiting remote areas and maintaining close coordination with district authorities to ensure sustained development across Kishtwar district.
