| Situation in Kashmir will impact business in J&K: CCI | | | 
Early Times Report
JAMMU, Oct 19: CCI Jammu President Arun Gupta has said the prevailing critical situation in Kashmir after the spate of killings of non-local workers can affect the industry in the Jammu region as tourists and devotees can change their plans to visit the UT in the ensuing winters. He said this while interacting with national organizing secretary, Bharat Vikas Parishad Suresh Jain.
The guest held a threadbare discussion with the Chamber team on various burning issues related to the Jammu region and the current boiling situation in Kashmir, wherein people are fleeing out of fear of targeted killings. The other issues which were part of the discussion include the demand of tweaking the J&K Land Act to provide justice to Mahajan, Khatri, Jain and Sikh communities which are presently barred from buying agricultural land, giving adequate relaxation to liquor bar owners for renewal of their licenses, rehabilitating the genuine wine shop owners who lost their livelihood due to e-auction of new shops, finding via-media to save small traders from the Reliance stores which are about to come to UT in a big number, making things clear in case of Darbar Move especially with regard to twin capital cities.
The other issues included annulling the passenger tax in line with other UTs, and the issue of residents of various colonies in Jammu who have been asked to vacate land chunks of their plots citing some 60 years’ old order. The CCI President however lauded the UT administration for its endeavour in resolving many issues which the people of the UT are confronting with. Gupta condemned the killings of innocent people in the Kashmir valley. He said that such incidents act as bottlenecks in the way of speeding up economic activities in the UT and frighten the people especially those communities which are being targeted. |
