BHALESSA: Asserting that the State Government failed to provide basic amenities to the people, former Minister and senior Congress leader Ghulam Mohammad Saroori on Sunday said it was unfortunate that people were being subjected to load shedding of electricity for long hours.
Addressing the people at Kahara, Bathri, Bhatyas, Amritpura Bhalessa areas, Saroori slammed government for betraying again the people of Chenab Valley for not allotting the RGGVY Phase II project and said it seems the administration has virtually decided to keep the people of Jammu and Kashmir especially Chenab Valley into darkness.
He urged the administration to allot tenders of RGGVY phase II work to some contractors or start the work departmentally so that people of the area will get regular power supply.
Saroori also said that due to its mis-governance this regime has lost its credibility. He took the Coalition Government to task for its failure to provide even ration to the people in the rural areas what to say of unconnected and remote belts.
He blamed the PDP-BJP Government in Jammu and Kashmir for the unrest in the State and said the statements of Mehbooba Mufti have only “exacerbated” the crisis.
He said Congress Party is deeply concerned over the situation in Kashmir, which according to him is “sliding into total chaos”. “The PDP-BJP Government is squarely responsible for the sharp deterioration in the region from the last three and half months.”
Dubbing as an “eyewash” the ambitious PM 80 thousands crores package for the State, Saroori asked when government will release those Rs 80,000 crore as one year has passed since the announcement by the PM and said the PDP-BJP made mere promises since the formation of coalition but nothing concrete can be seen on the ground.
“After having failed at all fronts and patroning the corrupt, the PDP-BJP Government is now hoodwinking people in the name of “Give us the cha-nce” on the name of development, Saroori said.
