JAMMU, Jan 6: Expressing concern over under-utilisation of developmental funds earmarked for this financial year due to administrative inertia, National Conference Provincial President Rattan Lal Gupta today said that Jammu and Kashmir is facing a crisis like situation under the bureaucratic rule.
“There is no accountability in the administration as a result of which the people are suffering on all fronts”, he said in a statement issued from Sher-e-Kashmir Bhavan.
Gupta said connect of the bureaucracy with the people is all time low, which has impacted the governance. The people have no access to top echelons of the administration, especially at a time when the entire Jammu region is reeling under acute power crisis and drinking water supply apart from unprecedented inflation, he said.
The NC Provincial President also exhorted the cadre to intensify their public outreach by reaching out to the people, identifying their grievances and submitting these to the provincial headquarters so that these are raised in Parliament as there is no mechanism for grievance redressal here.
