JAMMU: To discuss issue of immense damages and water-logging caused in various parts of Jammu city and complete failure of JMC and J&K administration in handling the situation, former Minister J&K Yogesh Sawhney General Secretary PCC, while speaking during a Press Conference, accused Jammu Municipal Corporation of total failure this time in handling the situation, stating that the Corporation was not prepared in advance for something that happens every year and therefore a lot of damages were caused, which could have been prevented. “As it is a massive failure of Jammu Municipal Corporation, Congress demands resignation of Mayor and the Deputy Mayor from their posts,” said Sawhney, urging LG to sack Mayor and Deputy Mayor.
During the press conference, the congress leader also briefly commented on Smriti Irani row stating that BJP Minister should first look in the mirror before saying anything against Congress President. He further conveyed condolences to bereaved families of two pilots, one of whom belonged to R S Pura and who lost their lives in IAF’s MiG-21 crash at Barmer district, calling it a ‘great loss and a most unfortunate incident’.
He further asked UT administration and JMC to take responsibility for the havoc caused in Jammu city besides initiating compensatory and rehabilitation actions at the earliest. He also urged BJP government at the center to stop their ‘Jumlas and Scams’ like Smart city scheme, which he called as publicity stunts and not developmental mission, as proved during recent rains. Sawhney said that failure of BJP on all levels is quite clear and demanded immediate remedial steps for compensating the losses, which Jammu people have suffered.
Others senior leaders present on the occasion included Sahil Sharma Spokesperson JKPCC, Dr Ramakant Khajuria Vice President DCC, Uttam Singh Chib Ex-Councilor JMC and Arif Malik.
