JAMMU, Aug 4: After the J&K administration decided to create a policy to delineate Gair Mumkin Khads, Laghu Udyog Bharati (LUB) in a meeting extended certain suggestions.
Addressing in the meeting, LUB president, Parveen Pargal proposed classification of water bodies like Gair Mumkin Dariya for which compulsory hydraulic modeling and wetting from a Government agency are required, Gair Mumkin Khad and Gair Mumkin Nallah, for which verification by a joint team from Flood Control and Revenue is needed, using visual methods if the water flow has been very low for 30 years; otherwise, hydraulic modeling is necessary.
Pargal further said that for Gair Mumkin Chui and Gair Mumkin Talab, hydraulic modeling is not possible and verification by a joint team is needed to make a decision.
“For Gair Mumkin Khasra numbers away from any kind of water body but classified as Gair Mumkin Khad, verification is necessary,” he maintained adding: “Similarly, for Gair Mumkin Hak, Gair Mumkin Rod, Gair Mumkin Rait and Gair Mumkin Kool, hydraulic modeling is not possible and verification by a joint team is required.”
The LUB president suggested that involvement of multiple government agencies such as NIH, Survey of India, State Agencies and Flood Control and Revenue makes coordination challenging and time-consuming. Therefore, it would be more efficient to delegate the authority to settle these issues to the District Commissioner or Divisional Commissioner, based on the category.
The meeting also marked the induction of Rohit Verma, a young entrepreneur in the service sector, as a new member of LUB with the efforts of Ishant Gupta, national member of Mass Communication, Laghu Udyog Bharati and vice president LUB J&K.
The meeting was organized under the leadership of LUB J&K president, Parveen Pargal and was attended by senior member Ajay Pargal, vice president, Ishant Gupta; general secretary, Aagam Jain and Shiven Pargal.
The LUB president also said that the issue of Gair Mumkin Khads, which has caused significant distress to landowners in Jammu, Samba and Kathua is now being effectively addressed.
