| Srinagar's Deputy Mayor becomes laughing stock again | | Height of inefficiency! | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Jan 30: The inefficiency of the Srinagar's Deputy Mayor was exposed once again as he mistook a simple official communication as a government order and went to the extent of claiming credit for it.
On January 28, a simple official communication as per the routine Chief Secretary and Principal Secretary home department asked under secretary to examine and take appropriate action in the matter related to the application submitted by Sheikh Imran to ban PUBG in the state. This official communication was mistaken as a ban order by many people including the Deputy Mayor Sheikh Imran. While trying to grab the opportunity to steal lime light he hurriedly drafted a press statement and claimed credit for the same.
The press statement had the headline: "After Deputy Mayor Intervention, PUBG banned in J&K." The statement had quoted the deputy mayor in the punchline as having said 'Our youth are our future and will not allow such things in our society which would affect their mental health.'
The statement said: "Earlier on Jan 19, Imran met Governor Satya Pal Malik and appealed him to intervene in the matter. He urged him to ban PUBG game with immediate effect.
Imran said the mobile game is very addictive especially when it comes to teenagers, going as far as comparing the game to a drug.
The game has resulted in students performing poorly in the recently conducted class X and XII board exams. "Looking at the negative effects of the game, we had recently sent a letter to the state government recommending a ban on the game. The ban was essential as children were getting addicted to the game and it was adversely affecting their studies" and it PUBG has an adverse effect on young minds."
Now, what is shocking is the fact that PUBG so far has not been banned by the government and there has been no order issued in this regard so far. What the government has done is to simply examine the application of the deputy mayor as is the laid down procedure in the civil administration.
Such is the height of ignorance that the person who is holding the post of Srinagar's Deputy Mayor is not able to differentiate between an official communication and an official order. "There is something seriously wrong with this person. He sometimes barges into the government hospitals and ridicules the medicos on duty.
He could be seen advocating talks between India and Pakistan and sometimes he is questioning the strategy of the government in dealing with the Kashmir situation. He is perhaps forgetting his actual job.
He has to take care of city's sanitation and its beautification.
However, contrary to his responsibility, he is trying to become a rights activist and the deputy mayor at the same time," says a netizen while reacting to the bizarre statement made public by the Deputy Mayor. |
