JAMMU, May 24: Apni Party provincial president Jammu and Ex-Minister, Manjit Singh today expressed concern over the poor basic amenities and under-development in border villages of R.S. Pura.
He was addressing a joining programme which was organized by provincial secretary, Women Wing, Nisha Bhagat in which many other leaders of the party were also present.
Welcoming the new entrants into the Party, he said that “The people from rural belt are also coming forward and joining Apni Party because of its policies and agenda which are public friendly and protect the rights of Jammu and Kashmir residents.”
He said that the bureaucracy is not concerned about the ground realities and the people are compelled to face under-development and poor basic amenities in many areas of the border belt.
He said that “The bureaucracy is not serious enough to resolve the developmental issues and this has shaken the faith of the people in the administration and other field departments”.
“The traditional political parties have emotionally exploited the sentiments of the people and hardly worked for their welfare. BJP has directly ruled J&K for the last eight years and the party has been exposed completely before the people,” he said.
He said that the anti-public policies have led to the anguish among the people and recent notification regarding Rehbar-e-Janglat, Rehbar-e-Zirat and Rehbar-e-Khel was an eye-opener although the clarification was issued later that there was no plan to terminate their services.
“The issues of the daily wagers still remain unsolved and nothing has been done for their regularization even as many of them have been serving in Government departments from the last two decades,” he said.
He said that the tourism sector, business, essential commodities and other sectors have been established due to the wrong policies of the bureaucracy which is responsible for adding more problems for the people in J&K.
“The people are not being given heed in absence of an elected Government hence, the assembly elections must be held immediately in J&K to end the problems of the people,” he said.
