| NC committed to strengthening democratic institutions in J&K: Rana | | | 
EARLY TIMES REPORT
JAMMU, June 12: Affirming the resolve of the National Conference to strengthen democratic institutions, Provincial President Devender Singh Rana today said that the electoral politics is core of democracy and hence every political entity should always remain in vibrant mode for the poll process.
“In democratic polity, the governance remains subservient to the people, who are the real fountain head of power”, Rana said during four-hour interaction with the party functionaries of the Ramban District, through virtual mode for four hours, as part of the party’s reach out programme, adding that the National Conference has been the guiding force behind democratic evolution in Jammu and Kashmir.
He said the National Conference has all along remained in the service of the people, whether in power or out of it. Public service is the political philosophy of the party which has enabled it to weather hostile situations from time to time in the past.
During the five-hour interactive session, the district functionaries highlighted various issues of immense public importance.
Responding to the points raised, the Provincial President exuded confidence that the administration will focus on optimum and regulated functioning of the utility services across the Jammu division in view of the ongoing scorching summer and the upcoming monsoon season, saying power and drinking water supply is required to be maintained on war-footing basis.
“We are in the midst of challenging times and the government must spell out its plans to meet the situation”, Rana said, adding this is imperative to instill a sense of confidence among the panic-ridden people. He referred to the ordeal being faced by young and old during these times of harsher summer when the human resource is required to work from home and children depend on a virtual mode of teaching. With electricity playing hide and seek for the better part of twenty four hours, the resultant impact on the water supply remains gruesome, he added.
The Provincial President reminded the role of the National Conference cadre in such grim times and hoped that they will intensify their mass contact programme by maintaining COVID protocol and ensuring the problems of the people are lessened.
District President Sajjad Shaheen called for coordinated efforts by various governmental agencies in providing some respite to the people and the need for combating virus in a mission-mode by putting in place oxygenated beds and adequate number of vaccination centres.
Prominent among those, who spoke during the reach out programme, included Dr Chaman Lal Bhagat, Dr Shamshad Shan, DDC Chairperson, Ramban, Vice Chairperson Ramban Rabia Beig, DDC Councillors B.A. Runiyal, Jagbir Dass, Shamima Begum, and others. |
