Bishnah, July 14: Senior advocate and prominent social figure of Jammu Mohinder Bhardwaj accused the government for neglecting Bishnah town in terms of development despite its proximity to Jammu city.As per press release, Bhardwaj said the dilapidated condition of roads and poor civic amenities prevailing in this small town part of Bishnah Assembly constituency speaks volumes about total neglect of this region over the years. He reiterated his demand that the entire Bishnah region should be accorded special status to ensure overall development of the area.
The area is a unique mix of rural and urban cultures and it will befit its status to develop Bishnah as a supporting township to ease pressure on Jammu while maintaining its agricultural character. It is ironic that government has not paid any attention to desilt the irrigation network over the years. As a result the farmers have been facing hardships and their produce has dwindled for want of proper irrigation facilities. Bhardwaj said that it is a matter of senior concern that roads leading to Majua, Khojipur, Maghal, Pana Chak and other adjoining villages are in a pathetic condition which will further worsen during the onset rainy season thereby adding to the woes of the people. He further added that the source of livelihood of the people of the area is agriculture and for reaping proper crops, the main source of water is tributary of Ranbir Canal and Ravi Tawi Irrigation Canal. The Main Canal and its tributaries are full of silt, Bushes and weeds.
