Early Times Report
NOWSHERA, Sept 2: Urging the govt not to snatch agricultural lands from poor farmers, Jammu and Kashmir Pradesh Congress Committee (JKPCC) chief spokesperson Ravindder Sharma (Ex-MLC) has accused the BJP government for following an arbitrary and discriminatory land policy, depriving the small and marginal farmers of their small land holdings, under their use and cultivation, for several decades and demanded a comprehensive review for framing of a fair and pro-farmers land norms.
Addressing a well attended meeting of Congress workers abd farmers in Nowshera today, Sharma said that previous governments settled the landless people and small farmers by following pro- poor people and pro farmers policies, by granting them rights over the lands under their bonafide agricultural and allied use, as per a fair scale but the BJP government has been victimising the genuine occupants / farmers by snatching their agricultutral lands especially on selective basis.
The influential and land grabbers are rarely touched but large number of genuine farmers including those in cultivation since fore fathers are being arbitrarily harassed by the field staff on pick and choose basis, which is discriminatory. Already there is lot of hue and cry over the issue of ignoring certan sections on caste basis instead of profession basis after seventy years of freedom.
He urged the Lt Governor to take a comprehensive review of the land policy abd consult the stake holders to frame a fair and non discriminatory policy which is pro poor people and pro small and marginal farmers, to stop the undue garassement of genuine people .
He categorically demanded identification of land grabbers and affuluelt illegal occupants who have managed to take undue advantage of their positions and situations in connivance with revenue officers abd officials in the past.
Several prominent party leaders and village level workers put forth their views about the hardships being faced by the common people due to anti people policiesof bjp govt like unpredented price hike of all commodities, large scale unemployment and neglect of major developmental projects initiated by the previous government. The non completion of the upgraded sub district hospital at Nowshera for over seven years and shortage of doctors in SDH Nowshera and other periphetal hospitals in the area were the main concern of the people.
They said that there is large scale unemployment due to lack of adequate job opportunities in seven years while the daily wagers, need based workers feel betrayed by the BJP as they were not regularised after several years of their service.
The meeting also demanded implementation of full package for the refugees/DPs of 1947,1965 and 1971 @30 lac per family and other components, pending over 7 yrars.
