Jammu and Kashmir Sangharash Samiti today asked the Mata Vaishno Devi Shrine Board (SMVDSB) to allot more shops to locals and state subjects as this would provide an opportunity to unemployed youth of the state to earn their bread and butter.
Addressing media persons in a press conference here today, the President of Samiti, Joginder Singh said that although Board claims that 30% of the shops shall be allotted to state subjects but are tight lipped over rest 70%.
" The authorities claim they have formulated a guidelines for allotment of so called preferentially treated 30% of shops and regarding the rest seventy percent, policy guidelines are not being revealed and published," Singh said.



Criticizing the Board authorities, he said that all sorts of barriers have been created by Board authorities even in meager share of thirty percent which makes 'preferential category' merely as illusion for residents of Katra.
" If a member of a family is in possession of shop in Katra or on the track to the Holy Shrine, his or her family members are debarred from allotment of shop," he said.
Decrying the Board authorities for remaining silent about rest of the shops, he alleged that the act would provide more room to them to utilize them for their personal benefits.
Others present on the occasion included Joginder Singh, Raj Kumar, Om Prakash, Sunil Kumar, Rashpal, Pankaj Singh, Jia Lal, Ashwani Kumar and Jagdish Lal.
