MLA Doda for probe into Legislative complex collapse

Excelsior Correspondent
JAMMU, Dec 24: Challenging the findings in report submitted by the Government probe panel into the collapse of heritage Legislative building complex at Jammu, former Minister and MLA from Doda Abdul Majid Wani has demanded a CBI enquiry into the case.
The JKPCC has become notorious for shelving off/ delaying completion of important projects. The same agency is responsible for sabotaging of construction of the Ganpat bridge in Doda district apart from delaying other important projects in Chenab Valley Region either due to vested interests of its engineers or due to political motivation, he said.
Majid Wani said that responsibility of sudden collapse of the historical grand edifice of Legislative Assembly at Jammu should have been, primarily, of expert engineers of JKPCC and its contractors who could not take required precautions while digging, excessively, surface of the old complex for constructing the new complex.
MLA Doda also requested the Chief Minister Omar Abdullah to order performance audits of all on going engineering projects of JKPCC in the State and to ensure strict action under the law against executing agencies for any defect or delay in the projects.
