| All is not well in Kashmir, Mufti to govt | | | EARLY TIMES REPORT
Srinagar, Jan 13: Expressing concern over slow pace of restoration of facilities after the recent snow fall in Kashmir especially the south Kashmir PDP patron Mufti Mohammed Sayeed today urged the govt to reach out to the people in real sense and solve their problems. Mufti added it was unfortunate that the govt had issued an "All is well" certificate on the crucial supply position of essential commodities.
In a statement issued here today Mufti said it was indeed a matter of shame that patients could not reach to the hospitals in time just because roads has not been cleared of snow even a week after the snow fall. He expressed grief over the death of the patients who could not access medical facility because of blocked roads in Tral.
Mufti stated that even in the Anantnag constituency which he represents in the Assembly people are faced with huge dislocation in life as many interior roads are still to be cleared and power is yet to be restored in many localities. "Transformers at many places need repairs and replacement, he stated.
Mufti added it was unfortunate that the govt had issued an "All is well" certificate on the crucial supply position of essential commodities. The administration is apparently finding it beyond itself to intervene on the side of consumers.
The PDP Patron said scarcity of drinking water has reached alarming proportions and people are finding it extremely difficult to fetch water from long distances in sub zero temperatures. He said the govt needs to do more on the ground than it is trying to convince the people having done through official press statements.
