| New Delhi unhappy with JK admin over handling of PDD protests | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Dec 27: New Delhi has taken serious note of the “poor administrative affairs” that led to crises in the wake of wrong handling of the recent protests by the Power Development Department employees in Jammu and Kashmir.
Sources said it was on the intervention of the New Delhi that the administration in J&K went for an accord at midnight with the protesting employees to end their protests. Sources said the Modi government has taken a serious note of the crises in the wake of power breakdown that pushed the common people to “terrible inconvenience”. It was reliably learnt that New Delhi has also taken serious note of the civil administration seeking assistance from the Indian Army to run the power grids, a development, which had snowballed into a major controversy. From the political circles to High Court Bar Association, several prominent forums had termed the Indian Army running grid stations as breakdown of the civil administration.
Sources said during a recent meeting, the JK administration was told in the last around seventy years, there had been several protests by the PDD employees to press for their demands from time to time but that the region had never faced such a power crises and that assistance from the Indian Army was never sought. Sources said one official at Raj Bhawan is being “largely blamed for the poor handling of the affairs that put New Delhi to unwanted criticism.”
Sources said the New Delhi told the administration in J&K that they should behave responsibly in handling the affairs and that no “misadventure would be tolerated in future.”
It’s pertinent to mention that around twenty thousand employees of the PDD had gone on indefinite strike against the proposed privatisation of the power sector and other demands.
As per the official documents, Jammu was facing the brunt of the crises and people from several areas of the winter capital had taken to streets. |
