| Where is Woman Dev Commission in Rajouri? | | |
Rajouri, AUG 10: Jammu and Kashmir Women Development Corporation, formed with an objective to implicate the lot of women belonging to weaker sections of society for their economic upliftment, has proved a failure in border district of Rajouri. Insiders said, on the condition of anonymity, that the WDC has almost become defunct and has threatened its very objective in the district. Of the total 50 self help Groups formed in Rajouri block with the assistance of ICDS Functionaries more than half have disbanded due to apathy and negligence of the Corporation, sources said. It was reliably learnt that the Corporation has even failed to open its District office in Rajouri, which could have provided some worthwhile guidance to the unemployed girl’s who wished to earn their livelihood by establishing gainful ventures. Razia Begum (name changed) remarks that not even a single self help group was provided financial assistance as announced by its director during her tour of the District Rajouri in 2004. “Even for imparting training the Corporation has set a harsh condition of attending it at Jammu”, Razia said, adding Jammu based training is not only mouthing but also denial of the benefits to Rajourite women under the Corporation. Another woman, Sabia, who desires to start her own self help group, alleged that the corporation has failed to achieve its objective due to its mismanagement and lack of proper policy. “Government is spending huge amount of money on the formation and running of such corporation but it seems that all the money is going to waste”, she observed. |
