| TDF demands district status for Thathri | | |
Early Times Report
Doda, Jan 23: President Thathri Development Front, District Doda, Kuldeep Kumar Rao demanded District Status, separate Assembly Constituency & also a separate tourism Authority for erstwhile Thathri Tehsil (Sub-Division Thathri) as it now comprises of 5 Tehsils and all the existing Districts & Assembly Constituencies in the state have hardly 2 or 3 Tehsils. Rao also demanded rotation of reserved assembly constituency seats & Delimitation of Assembly seats before election.
The delimitation of Assembly seats has become more necessary with the creation of 8 new Districts because some areas of one constituency are falling under the administrative jurisdiction of two Districts For Example Chatroo & Thakrai of Inderwal Constituency fall in Kishtwar District where as some parts of Gandoh Tehsil & Thathri Tehsil of same constituency remain with District Doda.
This sort of situation exists in many Assembly segments across the state that is bound to hamper the developmental and other social welfare activities. In view of the above situation, the general election 2014 was conducted without framing the Delimitation Commission. It had not only violated the constitutional provisions, but also proved an act to deprive the people of their rights enunciated under People's Representation Act. The 29th amendment of state constitution further needs amendment so far as it is in direct conflict with Indian Constitution & the democratic rights of the people. |
