UDHAMPUR, Sept 5: J&K president of Shiv Sena (Bala Saheb Thackeray) Manish Sahni today demanded that the UT administration must ensure the presence of doctors at the health centers situated in villages, especially in view of the fact that COVID-19 pandemic is not yet over.
Sahni lamented that the health facilities and road connectivity, especially in villages and towns on outskirts and far flung areas across Jammu province are far from satisfactory. While acknowledging that the Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha is extending the roads to the far flung areas of the region, Sahni said that along with this, the repair of roads is equally important.
The J&K Shiv Sena chief was speaking during a party function at Ram Nagar of Udhampur district. On the occasion, about 150 people influenced by Shiv Sena joined the party. While welcoming the new entrants into the party fold, Sahni said the people are joining Shiv Sena unabated only after being tremendously impressed by the party’s policies and work at the ground level.
Meanwhile, Sahni announced unit of Village Jindrarari and Thathpal of district Udhampur. Ishar Dass was appointed as village president, Deep Kumar as vice president and Tanu Devi as president mahila wing.
