Sir,
After the first spell of 10 months, the PDP and BJP alliance is again on the track but this time later seems to be on the backfoot knowing well that the alliance was the compulsion on both the parties to give proper representation to both the regions of the state . The priorities shown by the BJP for most important projects of Tawi Lake , Bahu fort and Patnitop ropeways and flyovers in old part of Jammu city are no more on the fast track agenda. Our Jammu BJP leaders are more inclined for the petty works of laying tiles and pick and shovel on small lanes in mohallas which the earlier Congress leaders were also doing. Coal tarring on the roads is being done in parts leaving manholes dips and not even any 50 feet stretch of the road is with out manhole dips particularly in Jammu west i.e. in Subash nagar, Patoli mangotrian, Vikas nagar and Sarwal area.
The main problems of Power curtailments and water supply in the whole of Jammu district have been kept in non priority row. Janipur area is at present facing three types of curtailments on the basis of overloading of Grid station at 132 KV level, 11KV incomings of all the three 33/11 KV transformers and 11KV individual feeders resulting in unannounced curtailment in these summer days. There seems no priority shown by BJP leaders for procuring funds for implementing scheme for water supply from Chenab river knowing well that there is going to be acute water shortage in Jammu in the next 2-3 years. The other most important and committed demand like delimitation commission can wait for but power supply , water supply and traffic congestion are such necessities for which the public will put them to task if not attended urgently.
Yours etc…..
