Wazir told the Deputy Commissioner that the concerned people were facing problems for non clearance of their land rents which are pending from the last more than 2 years and the arrears too which were accured when their land rents were enhanced, but instead of repeated reminders neither army nor lower rung Revenue officers are paying any heed, as a result the people were facing lot of problems.
Wazir further said that even the way to the old Historic Ambi Shiv Temple too has been closed by the Army for public which too be got re-opened. He said that the road between Baleni Bridge to Lower Ban which has got washed away by the rains be restored after some negotiation with Army because the old path is completely washed away in the rains and no land is available and a little adjoining land from Army can restore the old road.
Deputy Commissioner listened the delegation patiently and besides giving on spot instructions for some items assured that rest of the points will be taken up at appropriate levels.
The delegation among others comprised of Subhash Chander, Bansi Lal Sharma, Master Sham Lal, Janak Singh, Kalu Ram, Puran Chand etc.
