Jammu-Doda National Highway on verge of extinction, J&K govt goes missing
'We are not Kashmir'
4/22/2014 12:37:40 AM
Syed Junaid Hashmi JAMMU, Apr 21: With state government continuing its abysmal attitude and locals more bothered about settling communal scores, Jammu-Doda-Kishtwar national highway reached point of complete extinction. National Highway-1B becomes invisible due to both land slipping and landslides on the entire 54 kilometre stretch from Batote to Doda and also Batote to Kishtwar even if rains for a few hours. The highway becomes a death trap and if care is not taken, one can get buried deep u...

Govt yet to take possession of land in Kathua town
4/22/2014 12:34:59 AM
Bivek Mathur Jammu, Apr 21: Even as sanction was accorded to the constitution of Governing Body and Task Force for establishment of Biotechnology parks in Srinagar and Jammu last year, the government is yet to take possession of land in Kathua town for the project. The concerned minister is all praise for the Chief Minister saying,"CM saheb bade interested hain" however eulogizing Omar is nothing but a futile attempt to hide the facts. Under Government order number 554-GAD of 2013 dated 03-04-2013, sanction was accorded to the constitution of Governing Body and Task Force for establishment of Biotechnology parks in Srinagar and Jammu with Secretary DBT as Chairman of the Governing Body, C...

We will fight together for Kashmiris and their aspirations, says NC
Insulting people of Jammu, Ladakh
4/22/2014 12:34:15 AM
Rustam JAMMU, Apr 21: Election campaign in Kashmir is in full swing. The NC, PDP, the BJP and the AAP - apart from the presence of a few other candidates in the electoral arena - have fielded their candidates for all the three Lok Sabha seats. The NC and the PDP are the major players and the BJP is trying its level best to increase its support-base in the Valley. The AAP has claimed that it is also a serious contender. It appears to be a tall claim. Of course, it would get a few votes at the cost of the NC. Interestingly, the BJP candidates, all Muslims, have been taking on the NC and the PDP candidates, tearing into the NC-Congress coalition government and accusing it of failing the peop...
