KATRA, Dec 24: Rejecting the administration’s appeal for seeking more time over their demand of shelving the proposed ropeway project, Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Sangharsh Samiti today announced three-day Katra bandh from December 25.
Talking to media persons after meeting with Deputy Commissioner Reasi, members of the Sangharsh Samiti said that the administration failed to give them any assurance on the main demand and hence they were left with no option other than to resume the strike.
“The meeting did not yield any fruitful result as the DC sought more time to have discussion with higher authorities over our demand of shelving the propose ropeway project,” said the Sangharsh Samiti member and announced three-day Katra bandh on December 25, 26 and 27.
The Sangharsh Samiti informed that all business establishments shall remain closed while the traditional services like palanquins, ponies, and pithoos for the pilgrims shall also remain suspended during these three days.
