It looks that Government of India is focusing all its attention in carrying rescue and relief operations in the Valley, neglecting the affected people in Jammu region. The local administration has miserably failed to provide assistance to the people residing in the hilly terrains, inspite of the tall claims of the respective district administrations.
Prof Virender Gupta also asked the Government of India for separate allocation of relief funds for Jammu region and also ensure proper utilization of the funds being provided to the State at this moment of great disaster.
Prof Gupta strongly condemned the attitude of some of the leaders of the governing alliance who remained mute spectators to this great tragedy.
