Govt neglect pushed far-flung, backward areas into Stone Age: Rattan Lal

Early Times Report

RAJOURI, Nov 8 : National Conference Provincial President Rattan Lal Gupta on Tuesday castigated the J&K government for its phlegmatic attitude towards backward and far flung areas which this dispensation has pushed into Stone Age as people are facing dearth of amenities as never before.
The senior NC leader was addressing a meeting of the party’s Rajouri District unit at Rajouri City wherein Zonal, District Presidents and Blocks besides office bearers of these units were also present.
The meeting was chaired by District President Rajouri Urban Shafayat Ahmed Khan.
He said that people in the far off belts are protesting on a daily basis seeking basic facilities like power, potable water and other civic infra but the government is busy in rhetoric and misleading about changing the course of life of people through development, which in actual is nowhere on ground.
“This shows that there is much difference between words and deeds of the government as far as development is concerned because not only backward blocks but the entire J&K is facing development dearth as indifference of concerned quarters galore in the region”, Gupta said, adding that government authorities are in deep slumber while the people are confronting issues and difficulties with regard to health, civic infra, power and water shortage.The condition of the road from siot to Kalakote is in worse condition which proved utterances of govt are hollow slogans. And the performance of government on ground level is abysmal with people facing the brunt of development deficit.
Rattan Lal Gupta said that the BJP which relies on divisive politics during elections will face stiff reaction in the J&K as its ploy to divide society on ethnic and religious basis won’t work here. He said that both Gujjars and Bakerwals are close to the NC and so do the Paharis, and therefore attempt to divide people on different lines to take political mileage will boomerang for the BJP as on ground electorate knows the truth of this divisive party which is masquerading to be the Messiah of the masses.
He said that the development works in the far flung areas have been stalled due to fund diversion and mismanagement.
“Works initiated during NC’s regime are yet to be completed and the Niabats and other Administrative units sanctioned under the NC regime are in shambles because the present regime showed indifference of the highest level. Shortage of Specialist doctors in Rajouri medical college has put the lives of people at stake”, he said adding that BJP is desperately attempting to vitiate the atmosphere by spreading canards and provoking people by whipping up communal passions just for having an edge during the polls. The senior NC leader cautioned the people about dangerous designs of divisive parties active in J&K as these could go to any extent just to satiate their vested interests.
He emphasized on strengthening the slogan of Sheikh Mohammad Abdullah about Hindu, Muslim and Sikh Itihaad. “NC believed in communal harmony, brotherhood and camaraderie, which is the true spirit of Jammu and Kashmir’s pluralistic ethos”, he maintained.
Those who were present in the meeting included: Javed Ahmed Rana Zonal President Pir Panjal, Ch. Liaquet Ali Adv Central Secretary, Abdul Gani Teli P.P OBC Cell, Vijay Lochan P.P SC Cell, Ch. Naseem Liaquet DDC Chairman Rajouri, Ch. Maqbool, Th. Rameshwar Singh, Th. Yashu Vardhan Singh Addl Spokesperson, Sharaz Azari, Ashok Kumar Sharma District President Rajouri Rural, Block Presidents, Dalfi Sudan, Javed Iqbal and functionaries of Zone, District President also participated in strength.
