EARLY TIMES REPORT

JAMMU, Sept 23: Alleging conferment of multifarious facilities by the present regime to ex-MLAs/ex-Ministers and even petty workers of BJP to the exclusion of all other political parties, Harsh Dev Singh, Chairman-JKNPP & former Minister said that J&K provided the most glaring example of patronized corruption and misrule.
He expressed his dismay over the open violation of SOPs and guidelines in the matter of allotment of government accommodation so as to confer undue and illegitimate benefits upon the political persons owing allegiance to a particular party. It was shocking to note that BJP leaders who were not holding any position in government and fell in common man’s category were occupying not only ‘Special Type’, ‘A-type’ Estates mansions but many of them were still living in Ministerial Bungalows.
And while the opposition leaders including ex-Ministers and heads of recognized political parties were hounded out of Estates quarters’ years back through police force, the said BJP workers were allowed to retain the same thereby providing the most glaring example of present govt’s dictatorial and autocratic policies besides being indicative of patronized corruption in BJP rule. He was addressing a press conference in Jammu today.
He said that a reply received by him yesterday in response to RTI reveals that several BJP workers who never became even a Sarpanch in life time have been allotted Estates Bungalows which continue to be retained by them without paying even a single penny as rent.
He said that RTI reply has further revealed startling revelation with regard to arrears of rent of the BJP leaders with Sunil Sharma ex-Minister’s outstanding rent amounting to Rs 2,44,408, ex-MLA Dalip Parihar owing Rs 80,408, ex-MLA Sat Sharma Rs 66,660, ex-MLA Rajesh Gupta Rs 58,200, ex-MLC Pardeep Sharma Rs 52,291; BJP leader Hina Bhat Rs 84,640; BJP worker Tarik Ahmed Keen, Rs 88,872; Hasina Rs 52,379; BJP General Secretary Manohar Lal Rs 87,034 besides others.
Seeking a probe by ACB into the illegal occupation of government property by un-authorized persons. Not only the Estates Bungalows but the security vehicles and PSOs were also being allotted purely on political considerations, said Singh.
