Sarpanch Panchayat Joura Kalan, Tehsil Kahara, District Doda, Anil Kumar & Panch Joura Kalan, Ashok Kumar, in a joint statement issued here, have appealed the Union Minister and LG to instruct the concerned for according of forest clearance and taking up the suspended work on Suringa Morh- Jai link road immediately.
They said that on Suringa Morh-Jai link road (14 kms), earth cutting work has already been complete from Suringa Mor to revenue village Joura Kalan – a distance of 4 kms (non forest area) & the work from Joura Kalan to Jai (10 kms) stands suspended for want of forest clearance. They explained that out of these 10 kms, a stretch of one & half kms i.e from revenue village Joura Kalan to Revenue village Lower- Shamdlain is tree-less though it falls in forest area and hence work on this stretch can be executed without any loss to forest & without any legal hindrance even before forest clearance for the whole.
