Early Times Report

Jammu, Apr17: J&K Congress has questioned the failure of the Government to provide free ration to the residents, as announced last month while expressing serious concern over the indifferent attitude of the authorities of JK UT administration towards the stranded people in different districts and regions within J & K besides those in other states or waiting at the Kathua borders after completing their quarantine periods.
Questioning the Government for delay in disbursement of the free supply of ration, to the people, as announced last month, even after more than three weeks of the lockdown, the party said the poor people who are without any earnings, finding difficult to purchase essential food items. The free ration should have been distributed immediately, although it’s quantity and items is very limited. Only five kg rice and one kg dal is not enough, so the govt has delayed it and it’s is very meager assistance of the value of not more than Rs one hundred only per family. As a result of delay, large no of poor people are sleeping without full stomach food. JKPCC Chief G A Mir has said the administration is in different to the hardships of stranded people, both within and outside UT and there is total arbitrary exercise of power as well Confusion at various levels. He said that those stranded within UT, are being allowed only on the sole discretion of authorities while those outside are holding protests and hunger strike over the lack of proper response of the authorities , even when they have completed the necessary quarantine periods. The govt should have shifted such people on completion of the required period.
