PHE, RDD Deptts under fire in Ramnagar: Harsh
5/29/2018 10:44:20 PM
Early Times Report
JAMMU, May 29: With massive outrage sparked in various villages of Ramnagar constituency against the working of PHE and RDD Deptts, the protests against their malfunctioning had become a regular feature, said Harsh Dev Singh JKNPP Chairman and former minister.
He said that not only scarcity of drinking water was a general complaint of various areas but the legal stipulation of provision of 100 days employment to Job card holders by RDD under MGNREGA as provided under the Act was also being violated with impunity in various blocks of Ramnagar.
He sought a probe into the working of PHE schemes vis a vis funds received and output registered on the ground. He said that in the wake of several WSS schemes having gone defunct and acute problems faced by the people, several complaints of fake withdrawals of funds had been received from various villages without executing the work on the ground.
Making a particular mention of Rs. 60 lacs released by DDC Udhampur on 30th March for PHE schemes of Ramnagar, Singh expressed his dismay over the utilization of the entire amount within one day before the closure of the financial year with none to take cognizance of the apparent fraud of huge magnitude. He called for immediate restoration of defunct WSS besides ensuring water supply through tankers in affected areas.
He regretted that even the complaints filed by him with helmsmen regarding the blatant violations and other irregularities in MG-NREGA in District Udhampur particularly the Blocks of Ramnagar, Majalta, Khoon, Basantgarh, Ghordi, Kulwanta and Chanunta on the basis his personal knowledge and replies obtained through RTI, had failed to elicit any response from concerned quarters.
