| DSS demands early return of popular rule to JK | | |  Early Times Report
JAMMU, Aug 17: Dogra Sadar Sabha (DSS) has demanded early elections to the Jammu and Kashmir Legislative Assembly so that popular rule is restored in UT.
This was stated in a press statement by Th Gulchain Singh Charak, Former Minister and President DSS, issued here today after chairing a meeting of the Core Group of Dogra Sadar Sabha, J&K at Dogra Hall, Jammu.
He said that many specific and core issues of the common people were not being addressed because of the current bureaucratic mechanisms and attitudes adopted by the UT Administration, causing untold difficulties and inconveniences to the common man in the UT.
He said that it was also resolved during the meeting to demand that a fair share of seats be allocated to Jammu in the ongoing delimitation of constituencies based on factors like the terrain, communication and other facilities in different areas, besides population, so that restoration of popular rule in Jammu and Kashmir has balanced connotations for the people in both regions of the UT. He said that the assurance to restore Statehood to Jammu and Kashmir by the Prime Minister and the Home Minister may also be fulfilled at the earliest.
Welcoming the decision taken by the UT Administration to do away with the outdated practice of Durbar Move and allow functioning of the Civil Secretariat at both Jammu and Srinagar, Charak disclosed that members further resolved in the meeting to request the UT Administration that the vacant positions in Jammu Secretariat be filled up at the earliest and the concerned official functionaries be asked to visit the field frequently to get a feel of the ground realities in the Region and also to take feedback from the concerned stakeholders directly, for more effective governance.
It was also unanimously agreed to demand that the residential facilities at the J&K House properties at New Delhi, Chandigarh and other locations need to be worked out in consultation with representatives of the people of both the Union Territories. He said that handing over the entire JK House at the central location of Chanakyapuri, New Delhi to Ladakh will cause great inconvenience to the people and officials of J&K, and needs to be reconsidered for a joint decision by concerned stakeholders for equitable access.
Prominent among those who were present in the meeting were Col. Karan Singh, Prem Sagar Gupta, Gambhir Dev Singh Charak, Dinesh Singh Chauhan, S. Kulbir Singh, Chajju Singh Jamwal, Narinder Singh Jamwal, Om Parkash Sangra, Raj Kr. Sagotra, Ashok Charak, Sawarn Singh. |
