STATE TIMES NEWS
JAMMU: Observing that ex-Sainiks of J and K have given sacrifices in safeguarding our borders in the State and country, President, Dogra Sadar Sabha, Gulchain Singh Charak today asked the PDP-BJP Coalition Government to establish a Sainik Colony for the ex-servicemen of J and K in Kashmir Valley.
Asking that DSS would strive hard for the same, Charak also wanted that government should come clean about its intentions for the establishment of the colony without any ambiguity.
Talking to reporters here today, Charak, while condemning the Khour rape incident, asked the government to penalise the culprits, the so called protectors of the public who-so-ever they may be, irrespective of their political or other connections by giving them deterrent punishment.
Expressing concern over the issue of killing of Chamail Singh in Pakistan jail who has not been given the honour and compensation as has been given to late Sarabjeet Singh in the similar case by the state and the Central Governments, Charak demanded detailed enquiry into that, besides, giving him the status of Martyr and by extending all sort of help to his family including the adjustment of his dependents in the government jobs.
Charak appealed to all the legislatures of the State in general and Jammu province in particular to raise these issues in both the Houses of the legislature during the Assembly session starting from 25th of May, 2016 forcefully and ensure proper action on the issues otherwise there will be no use of their attending the session merely for the sake of some monetary perks.
