Jammu, Jan 29: Senior Congress leader and two time Member Parliamentary from Udhampur-Kathua-Doda constituency Chowdhary Lal Singh today compared BJP Prime Ministerial Candidate Narendra Modi with poor quality dog breed.
While interacting with media persons at Kathua, Chowdhary Lal Singh said that those people who are trying to snatch the livelihood of common people are dreaming to run the nation. He said that it is unfair to compare Modi with Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi.
"Even if we tame dogs at home, that too must have good quality breed or similarly while selecting the ox for ploughing the fields, the people take his strength of ploughing into account, but how can we talk about Modi as people don't know anything about him as well as about past credential," said Lal Singh.

SRINAGAR, Jan 29: Creation of new administrative units in the state may or may not lead to the ouster of Omar Abdullah as Chief Minister of Jammu and Kashmir but these have already created problems for the people who have to visit various parts of Kashmir valley.
As people in South, Central and North Kashmir are up in arms with regards to formation of new administrative units, people who travel in connection with their duties suffer badly. The office goers have to change their vehicles and as such lot of their time get wasted in boarding and de-boarding the vehicles.

JAMMU, Jan 29: Reports emanating from New Delhi suggest that working president of the National Conference and Chief Minister Omar Abdullah might sacrifice the Government that he has been leading since January 2009 and go to the people for seeking a fresh mandate.

JAMMU, Jan 29: Transporters in the state particularly Mini-bus drivers who are also demanding hike of 40 % in freight charges covertly and overtly have amassed crores of rupees through the aberrant rates fixed by the Transport Department which till date have been fixed in fractions. However, the Minister concerned surprisingly disowns the lapses for failure of his department to fix the rates appropriately.
For Minister for CAPD and Transport Choudhary Ramzan the people themselves should raise voice against over-charging and accredits it to the lack of the awareness among public about its rights.

Jammu, Jan 29: “Jab Bi Raat Gaye Mere Ghar Main Chor Aata Hai,
Garibi Ki Kasam Mujhe Bahut Sharmindgi Hoti Hai”, the couplet of a poet, aptly describes weak economical condition of Thuru Ram (45) of village Palth, district Samba, who is residing in a 8X10 feet kiosk, one falling wall of which is supported by wooden planks besides the rear wall, which had collapsed during last rainy season.The damaged wall is yet to be reconstructed and the roof too is covered with some torn plastic sheets.
