Early Times Report
JAMMU , Nov 9 : Disturbances during the militancy in Jammu and Kashmir had brought development in all the spheres to a halt and economy was in a shambles, however, people of the state helped to nip the evil in the bud and restoring normalcy, Chief Minister Omar Abdullah said today.
The launch, construction and commissioning of hundreds of development projects during the tenure of present coalition, largely owe its existence to the peaceful situation and brotherhood prevailing in the state, he said. “Despite attempts on peace and amity, the people of the state in general helped the government in nipping the evil in the bud and restoring normality,” Omar said.
The chief minister said that disturbances during the militancy in the state had put all spheres of development at halt and economy in shambles.
“Whenever there is a security and law and order challenge the government’s attention is shifted from development to providing security to the people and controlling the situations. This gives a jolt to the process of development,” Omar said.
Omar was addressing a public gathering at Kunjwani near here after laying foundation of a Rs 50 crore maternity hospital at Gandhi Nagar. The chief minister said that the hundreds of schemes in various sectors during the last five years in the state speak “loud and clear” for the performance of his government. “Some people for political reasons do not want to count the achievements of my government and attempt to divert the attention of people. They still indulge in raising old and worn out slogans like discrimination,” Omar said. Omar said over a dozen projects, including Jammu flyover, artificial lake, fourth bridge over River Tawi, super speciality hospital, various grid and receiving stations besides water supply schemes were launched and completed in Jammu city during the tenure of his government.Omar said that he does not believe in propaganda because the work done on the ground itself speaks for its author.
