Early Times Report
Poonch, Sept 29: Border district Poonch has four sub divisions which are said to be lagging behind in the development works sources said here today. They said the bridges to be constructed in sub division over the nallahs have been confined to papers yet a little bit work over these bridges done earlier, was washed away in recent flash floods.
The roads constructed by PMGSY or Public Works Department were in dilapidated condition. No work is being done to fill up the ditches and holes over them. Old people sick, and school going children were the most suffers. In some cases pregnant ladies delivered babies in vehicles while carrying them to hospitals source added. The over all development in sub division Mendhar, Surankote Mandi and Poonch is lagging behind. People said the health scenario was in worst condition. The buildings which were supposed to be constructed for primary health centres never saw the light of the day. Though the entire Poonch district is a border area but Mendhar sub division fall near LOC and people living in these areas need 24*7 medical help which at present was not being provided. Similarly the power crisis were also witnessed in these sub divisions. Firstly the infrastructure was poor the service lines were being transmitted with the help of trees instead of electric poles putting open threat to human lives. The department is in deep slumber and never pay any visit to these areas which for days together reel under complete darkness. Meanwhile, youth club Mendhar chairman Nadeem Rafiq Khan has urged the Governor SP M alik and district authorities to take the stock of problems being faced by the general people in sub division of Poonch district and take appropriate measure to put these sub divisions on the the path of development , he added. |
