Disconnect between Cong and people of Jammu
Betraying The Cause
9/17/2011 11:41:22 PM
Neha Jammu, Sept 17: Policies of the NC-Congress coalition government have created widespread disappointment and dissatisfaction among all in Jammu province, except in a limited circle close to the corridors of power and the so-called representatives of this province which has been at the receiving end since 1947. The NC, which has little or no stakes in Jammu, continues to humiliate and taunt the people of this province and its main concern is for a particular section of Kashmiri society. The political behaviour of the PDP has been identical, as it has its support-base limited to the Kashmir Valley. It, like the NC, also caters to the needs and urges of a particular religious sect.

The meeting has been organised by Intelligence Bureau (IB) to discuss the internal situation in the country and find ways and means to tackle those out to cause disturbances in the country to achieve their nefarious designs. What did the Prime Minister say? He, inter-alia, said: "Security environment in the co...

9/17/2011 11:38:49 PM
Sir, I had raised a question during the last session of the state assembly seeking a reply from the government regarding the decision to stop government advertisements to the daily Early Times published from Jammu. I had also spoken about the highhandedness of the government and its arbitrary, whimsical dispensation regarding distribution of official advertisements to the various newspapers published in the state. Despite repeated requests, the state government did not come forward with any reply to my question and the result has been that through its decision to ignore my question the state government has covertly accepted that it does not have a reasonable answer to my question. Hon'b...
