SRINAGAR, June 25: State Secretary CPI (M) Mohammad Yousuf Tarigami has expressed shock and grief over the tragic road accident on highway at Sangam in Anantnag in which at least 3 persons died and 30 were injured.
Tarigami urged the Government to provide free of cost medical treatment to the injured persons and ex-gratia to the families of deceased.
Voicing concern over growing road accidents in Jammu and Kashmir, Tarigami has asked the Government to come out with a report on action taken over recommendations of a House Committee (HC) headed by him that was constituted to prepare a comprehensive report on causes and measures to bring down the number of road mishaps in the state.
He said over two years have passed since the panel submitted its report, but the Government is yet to come out with its action taken report on the recommendations.
“This speaks volumes about the Government’s indifferent attitude towards this serious humanitarian crisis,” he alleged.
