| SEC meeting again cancelled; victim appeals Guv to intervene | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Feb 8: The wait for justice for Nayeem Ahmad Khuroo, young entrepreneur who lost everything in a bid to save lives of hundreds of flood victims in Srinagar last september got longer still as the meeting of the State Executive Council (SEC) which was scheduled to be held on Feb 5 under the chairmanship of Chief Secretary got cancelled again .
The said council was to decide the fate of Nayeem Ahmad Khuroo , the savior of a hundred lives. Nayeem, a resident of Naik Bagh Nowgam, Srinagar had emptied his synthetic foam mattress shop and godown just to ensure people were saved from drowning during the September 2014 floods. In addition to providing foam mattresses to several rescue teams , volunteers and Govt officials , Nayeem also provided as many as 150 wooden planks to different rescue teams and individuals during that disaster. The authorities right from Patwari to Deputy Commissioner Srinagar have authenticated the fact that Nayeem Ahmad Khuroo the owner of Star Wood Dealers and Nandini Mattresses did a heroic work and lost all his stocks, but the Government has stayed inert to his sacrifice.
His case was sent to Chief Minister's office by the DC Srinagar and the top officials in CM's office also authenticated his case. The final call which was to be taken by State Executive Council (SEC) headed by Chief Secretary finalized Feb 5 as the date of the meeting, but once again the meeting was cancelled due to unknown reasons said Nayeem Ahmad Khuroo while talking to Early Times. "I was hopeful that SEC meeting would be held on Feb 5th at Jammu, but it got cancelled and I think it is my bad luck. I appeal Governor N N Vohra to look into my case" he added.
Pertinent to mention that Early Times had carried a detailed report about this case in January this year but even after the lapse of 15 months, Nayeem Ahmad Khuroo is yet to be compensated.
"I have lost everything, the landlord has thrown me out . My business has collapsed . I sold my motorcycle, and my mother's gold ornaments just to repay the loans etc ." Nayeem Khuroo further added.
"I thought Nayeem Khuroo would not only get compensation from Government but a state award as well for his work along with other volunteers , but i feel sad about him " said Mohammad Ayaz a resident of Banhar Wathoora (Budgam) who was one of the volunteers to use Nayeem's mattresses and wooden planks during floods. |
