Govt pushing development to back-burner: Jan

Excelsior Correspondent
JAMMU,  Aug 31:   Provincial Youth National Conference president Ajaz Jan has   assailed PDP-BJP Coalition Government for pushing development to back-burner and ignoring maintenance of utility services as a consequence of which people continue to suffer .
Mr Jan, while addressing youth workers at party office here today said the problems of the people have accumulated during the past six months and the insensitive Government is just playing politics instead of solving these.
“The Govt must not test the patience of people,” Mr Jan said, adding that the first six months of the present dispensation have been disappointing. He accused the `coalition’ of dividing people on regional and religious basis.
Referring to erratic power supply, the Youth NC leader said that the consumers are charged heavily though the supply remains frequently disrupted. He cited the example of Poonch and Rajouri  where consumers are fleeced by serving several bills in a single household. “Despite repeated pleas, the billing has not been rationalised,” he added.
Haroon Rashid,  Dr  Shamshad Shan,  Yashu Vardhan Singh,  Rohit Bali, Aman Singh  and Abhinav Dogra were also present.
