STATE TIMES NEWS
JAMMU: Reiterating his demand for CBI inquiry in the Jammu Tulip Garden project, State President, Shri Ram Sena (SRS), Jammu and Kashmir, Rajiv Mahajan expressed concern over the neglect of Jammuites, that no one from the J and K State Coalition Government of PDP-BJP issued any statement on the stalled prestigious tourism project worth Rs. 8.5 crore on 563 Kanals of land at Bhour Camp in Jammu, which was inaugurated by the then Chief Minister Ghulam Nabi Azad on 31st March, 2008, meant for growth of Jammu tourism.
Rajiv Mahajan, in a statement issued today, said despite raising the issue of Jammu Tulip Garden on various occasions by Shri Ram Sena, no one from the government side especially Jammu based Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) MLA and ex ministers issued any statement about the fate of the Tulip Garden, one of the prestigious tourism projects in Jammu.
Mahajan demanded CBI inquiry in the expenditure of Rs. 8.5 crore-sanctioned amount for the project and the status of the garden to be made public.
He also asked Speaker Legislative Assembly and MLA Gandhi Nagar Constituency, Kavinder Gupta, under whose jurisdiction the Tulip Garden falls, to take the matter seriously and sort out misappropriation caused in the funds meant for Tulip Garden project and help in booking the culprits.
He said, “Despite Jammu having the great potential of attracting both domestic and foreign tourists with extra-ordinary destinations in Chenab Valley, Rajouri-Poonch belt and upper areas of Kathua district, the erstwhile governments did not bother to prepare projects and submit them to Central Government for financial support so that many such areas could be developed as attractive tourist destinations.”
He appealed to Governor N.N Vohra to start stalled projects for development of tourism in Jammu particularly the Tulip Garden in Chatha.
