| Shift Sub-Registrar’s office back to Bishnah to avoid inconvenience: Bhardwaj | | |
EARLY TIMES REPORT
JAMMU, Sept 23: Senior Congress leader and member AICC, Mohinder Bhardwaj has said that the administration's mindless planning in hurriedly changing the system of registration of documents under the registration Act has resulted in the people facing a lot of hardships. Ostensibly working with a mindset to score brownie points rather than doing any public welfare, the ruling BJP and the Union Territory administration quickly changed the system by empowering the revenue department with these powers of registration without sparing much thought on first creating proper infrastructure that more importantly involves setting up the offices of the competent authority within convenient distances to avoid hardships.
Pointing to this malady of shortcoming in the implementation of the changed system of documents registration, Bhardwaj, who is also a senior advocate, said that a case in point is that of people of Bishnah and Arnia tehsils and particularly those residing in the border villages of the area. In a sudden move the office of the competent authority, which earlier used to be Munsiff Bishnah, has been arbitrarily shifted from this tehsil headquarters to Janipur in the other corner of Jammu city.
Bhardwaj rued that people at large failed to understand the administration's motive first transferring the registration work from courts to the revenue department without a proper study and creating infrastructure and then asking the newly empowered sub-registrar office of the competent (revenue authority) to a place which is inconvenient and cost effective for the people.
He cautioned the administration to take immediate remedial measures as the people of the area are becoming restive and could be forced to take a direct action if the office of the sub-registrar is not shifted to Bishnah immediately.
While seeking direct intervention of the Lt Governor Manoj Sinha, he said that being a public man himself he would better understand the practical difficulties of the people particularly residing on the border areas of these two tehsils.
