"The building situated over the state land, once it was only hospital in Kalakote run by J&K Mineral limited, however, latter it was handed over to Health Department", he claimed.
He said that instead of making lame excuses that "the encroached land does not belong to Health Department as per revenue record as reported by the committee constituted by the Additional Deputy Commissioner Kalakote", but why committee ignore to visit the spot and click the photographs.
Deputy Commissioner Rajouri, Mohammad Aijaz could not be contacted for his comment. But it is pertinent to mention here the earlier, enquiry committee, without mentioning that the said building excited that too with some leftover to prove that building was hospital and belongs to health, gave its support to the wrong doing of Revenue Officials and the Health department.
Meanwhile, the ADC Kalakote has constituted further a committee headed by BDO Kalakote as its chairperson, while SDAO and AR Co-operative as the members of the committee. The committee has asked to submit its report within a week. Will the committee copy earlier report and visit the spot to collect the evidences?. |
