| China facilitating zero-line villagers, J&K UT uprooting border dwellers at Gharana: Tony | | |  Early Times Report
SUCHETGARH, Dec 28: DDC Member Suchetgarh, Taranjit Singh Tony appealed to the Prime Minister to look into the Administration of Jammu and Kashmir Union Territory as farmers’ land being targeted by the real estate developers and the colonizers.
While addressing a public meeting at village Shek-e-Chak, Panchayat Faloura in Suchetgarh, the DDC Member said as the earlier laws to safeguard the agricultural land is being modified/ altered to facilitate the colonizers and real estate owners.
He said that such move will be countered by the farmers with strong protest against the J&K UT Government. He said that the only occupation left for unemployed is agriculture and that too is being targeted by the real estate mafia and administration has become hand-in-glove to suit the requirement of real estate mafia.
The DDC member said all such policies which are hell bent upon against farmers and the glaring example is Gharana. He said that the neighbouring country like China is creating all facilities for its villagers and farmers along the Intl borders facilitating the whole new village on government expenses whereas in India the J&K UT led Administration is taking the land of farmers forcibly and the farmers are suffocated because of the negative approach of the LG Admn on farmers and agricultural issues.
The DDC member said that development of the Gharana Wetland is a significant step and the government needs kudos for focusing on this project which was lingering for the last many years giving a bad name to the Jammu and Kashmir as the wetlands preservation is something which holds much significance in conserving the ecology a nd endangered species of both plant and animal kingdoms.
Tony demanded that the government should exchange land in place of land chunks which the affected farmers have given for development of the aforesaid wetland which is host to many species of birds that visit Jammu and Kashmir from far off places like Siberia, Russia, etc.
He said that the land taken by the government was the livelihood of many therefore it is advisable that the government should offer jobs to one member of each family that has given land for the development of this wildlife project.
He also appealed to all the farming community to get united to fight tooth and nail to get justice delivered.
He said that he will take the matter to its logical end and come what may he will not leave the affected farmers in the present turmoil. He said that the government should not test the patience of the farming community as they are prepared for any kind of sacrifice to get justice.
Youth leader Gharu Choudhary expressed resentment against the government for rising unemployment in Jammu and Kashmir as not a single recruitment drive was conducted in the border town since 2016. |
