Early Times Report
JAMMU, Jun 26: Government agencies have very well learnt art of indulging in wasteful expenditure and spending money at the sites when it is least required.
Tax payers hard earned money is spent with the sole purpose of wasting it and little emphasis is laid on ensuring fruitful expenditure for the benefit of masses. For the past couple of days, government agencies are carrying out repair work of road link near Trikuta Nagar extension connecting Channi Himmat and Greater Kailash area.
Timing of start of construction work has already raised many a question marks. Secondly the slow pace of work at the road construction site has been affecting the smooth movement of traffic. To add to the miseries, instead of expediting work on the ground zero, it is being delayed intentionally.
Local residents in the area complained that if at all the government was interested in carrying out the repair, they should have started it little earlier and had not waited for start of the monsoon season. Residents complained that storage of water in the area and unhygienic conditions can lead to health hazards but it seems no one in this government is worried about the health of local masses.
A prominent citizen living in Trikuta Nagar extension area said, "There was no reason for government agencies to start work right at the advent of monsoon season if they knew in advance that the project has been sanctioned.” He said that even if they would carry out road construction work, it would be of very poor quality as frequent rains would destroy the road soon after it would be readied by them.
