Lack of proper governance in State : PDP | | | EARLY TIMES REPORT RAJOURI, Nov 19:Expressing his agony over the shocking state of affairs in J&K, senior PDP leader Shahzad Khan said that there is lack of proper governance in the state. He said that increased level of corruption, fear for safety of life among the people in the valley, lack of social security, unemployment among others is swelling day by day and subsequently devastating the state on all fronts. Shahzad said that the people in the valley are living in constant fear for life because of the draconian laws like AFSPA, etc. The civil liberties are curtailed; innocent youth are put behind bars and tagged as stone pelters. Political instability has not only affected the faith of the people in the state but also has badly affected the economy, human resource development, social security and overall development of the state. The recent supposed demand of the CM to withdraw AFSPA is a mere eye wash as nothing concrete is being done. Criticizing the increasing level of unemployment, he said that the electoral promise of employment to at least one member in a family has never been fulfilled by the present NC led government. Terming the Sher-e-Kashmir Employment and Welfare Programme for Youth (SKEWPY) and the recent New Recruitment Policy as rhetorical, Khan said that the NC government has throughout history sold the name of Sher-e- Kashmir. He said that the new recruitment policy will not only demoralise the youth but also disillusion them since the state government is the sole and the largest employment generating agency. He said that instead of implementing the already existing schemes and projects on ground, the government is fooling the people with new projects. Despite having a large number of vacancies, the unemployed are yet to be absorbed into the government jobs. Quality of education is very poor and basic minimum facilities like enough teaching staff, roofed building, desks and benches, nearness to home and an incentive to study is lacking. Lambasting the non implementation of the centrally sponsored schemes under Bharat Nirman and others, Shahzad said that the government is busy minting its own money thus dumping the state into darkness and backwardness. The employment programme under MGNREGS is not being implemented properly on ground. Similarly, rural electrification under the RGGVY is yet to be implemented on grounds. Shahzad said that more than 63 years have passed since India attained independence from the British rule but we are yet to free ourselves from darkenss. The far flung border areas of Rajouri and Poonch are yet to get an electric pole laid and a transformer installed. People have to travel long distance to get medical treatment and even come to Jammu because of lack of facilities in the district headquarter leave alone PHC’s. Clean drinking water too is a distant dream said Shahzad as people still fetch water from rivers and baolies.
