JAMMU, Jan 15: Jammu Regional Committee CPI (M) today staged a massive demonstration in front of Governor House here against unabated price rise especially of essential commodities and food items, menace of corruption, alarming unemployment problem, non availability of fertilizers to the farmers and erratic power supply.
Carrying placards and banner, the protestors raised slogans against the neo-liberal economic policies adopted by the centre since 90s which they held mainly responsible for most of the problems.
Regional secretary CPI (M) Sham Parsad Kesar Jammu lambasted both Central and State Governments for their failure in curbing the price escalation.
Kesar said that that state government has failed in its commitment to provide job opportunities to the unemployed youth of the state, who have already suffered due to two decades long turmoil? The much hyped Sher-e-- Kashmir Employment and Welfare Programme for the Youth (SKEWPY) could not provide any respite to the educated unemployed due to its inadequacy and lack of vision.
Om Parkash, General Secretary, CITU J&K said that rampart corruption at various levels in the administration has played havoc with the common man eating the very vitals of the society. People are forced to pay hefty bribes even for petty routine works; he rued and called for united struggle to stamp out the malaise form the system.
