| Manohar expresses concern on losses due to firing along IB | | | Early Times Report
JAMMU, Dec 22: Expressing serious concern on unprovoked heavy firing by Pakistani troops along International Border (IB), the former Minister and President District Congress Committee (DCC) Kathua Dr Manohar Lal Sharma criticized neighbouring country for violating cease fire.
Dr Sharma lambasted government and administration for not paying attention and concern for people residing in villages along IB, who are facing the wrath of Pakistan firing. He said that villagers of Rathua, Chann Lal Din, Manyari and Pansar of Hiranagar Sector of District Kathua are worst sufferers.
While pointing issue, Dr Sharma further said major priority of government should be rehabilitation of cross-border firing victims to safer places. He said many villages are still without bunkers adding that people residing along IB are waiting for safe places for residing as promised by the government.
He said Union Minister Jatinder Singh promised Rs 5 lakh cash and 5 Marlas plot each at safer places to the cross-border firing affected people but till now they have got nothing. He said kith and kin of those who have died in cross-border firing are still waiting for rehabilitation/ jobs to next of kin but neither they have been provided the job or 5 marlas plots at safe places by the government.
Dr Sharma said that the most affected people during the present government regime are the farmers. He said RS Pura, Bishnah and Hiranagar belt of the state is well known for its basmati rice production.
He said the rice/paddy which used to be sold at Rs 7000 / quintal in 2013-2014 now nobody is willing to buy even at Rs 2000-2200 per quintal thus leaving farmers of the belt in a lurch. |
