Early Times Report
Poonch, Oct 15: Nari Niketan housing destitute situated on the other side of Mendhar river lack basic amenities and the inmates who seems to be upset due to nonavailablity of basic facilities feel insecure as there was no night watchman to guard the niketan as well as Superintendent, who had retired some months ago, sources said here today. They said the Superintendent of the Niketan had retired three months and the incharge have been made Tehsil social welfare officer Shakeel Ahmed who under rules cannot take additional charge of Niketan as he was a (male) sources said, adding fortnight ago the night watch man also attained the age of Superannuation and since then there was no night watch man in the Niketan giving a sense of insecurity to the inmates. While the building of Niketan was in dilapidated condition the present building was constructed by army ten year ago in 2008 under Operation Sadbhavna and dedicated to people but for the last ten year no repairing or renovation was made by the concerned authorities. The inmates including three widows and 17 girl children live in the Niketan in sub human condition. They have no facility available in the Niketan. No utensils in kitchen, no nutritent diet while as they have a specific menu for their dietary programme. Their roll has been shown on records at 28 when only twenty people are there, sources said. The upkeep of the inmates was not up to the mark and the inmates were living in sub human conditions. The Niketan has failed to provide basic facilities including proper bedding room heater facility, no chair, no cook and what to say about other things Niketan even has no water connection from the PHE department. All the jobs are being done by the girls themselves and if they share their worries with media they are being punished and harassed sources said. Early Times contacted the Tehsil social welfare officer Mendhar Shakeel Ahmed to throw some light on the issue but to the utmost surprise Shakeel hardly could give any reasonable reply to querry. Meanwhile local social worker Basharat Azim have urged the Governor SP Malik that the condition of inmates of Nari Niketan Mendhar was miserable and need of the hour was to provide them basic facilities including health care and other necessary things which they need like any thing, he added. |
