| Now State Govt issues paid advertisements to announce its failure | | |
Early Times Report
JAMMU, July 11: As the state Government started observing the World population fortnight from today, its 'honest' paid advertisement announcing the observation again says it all.
The paid advertisement appeals people to limit their families through a universal slogan that says 'small family, happy family' but the reasons the state Government advertisement puts forth for making the appeal are nothing except those which expose the Government's inability to improve the quality of life for an individual, his family and the society at large.
One chief reason cited in the advertisement because of which people must limit their families is scarcity of water.
Who created scarcity of safe drinking water and water resources in Jammu and Kashmir? Obviously the wrong policies of the state Government. Our water bodies and perennial water reservoirs have been destroyed because the Government has not made any plans on a long term basis. Drinking water resources are polluted by discharge of affluent and mismanagement of these resources by the state Government.
Natural resources are also listed in the advertisement as those becoming scarce. J&K is supposed to be the richest state in the country so far as natural resources are concerned. Through the paid advertisement the state Government has admitted that these natural resources are fast vanishing in the state and that is why the people must not put these under further pressure by over-population.
While the country has surplus food reserves, J&K Government has said in the advertisement that there is food shortage in the state. In the same breath it is said that there is no adequate waste disposal management in the state.
Looking at the advertisement and going through its contents one cannot help wondering whether it is a failure admission statement or an honest appeal to limit one's family.
As usual, the advertisement carries the photograph of the incharge Minister so that people remember the face well and refer to the concerned Minister whenever the failure sheet of the state Government is discussed. |
