EARLY TIMES REPORT
JAMMU, Dec 16: Strongly pleading for conduct of early civic elections and extension of 73rd and 74th Amendments of the Indian Constitution for empowerment of the basic democracies in the State, MLA Chaman Lal Gupta has said that this would help the participation in development.

Responding to the complaints of the people of different localities regarding sanitation problems Gupta said if the elections to the local bodies are held, this would help in improving the situation because of the presence of the elected representatives of various localities.

“But it is a sad story that in J&K the elections to the Panchayats and local bodies were never made a regular feature nor these basic democracies were empowered by extending 73rd and 74th Amendments of the Indian Constitution to this State”, he alleged.

He regretted that despite repeated promises neither the electoral rolls have been upgraded nor identity cards have been issued in most of the localities even in this capital city of Jammu.

Gupta cautioned the ruling leaders trying to create a conflict between the legislators and the newly elected Panchs and Surpanchs. He said the assembly is an established constitutional body but government is trying to create rift between the elected representatives.
