Crisis like situation in snow-infested areas of Ramnagar: Pathania | Calls for air-dropping of essential commodities | | Early Times Report RAMNAGAR, Jan 15: A crisis-like situation has been prevailing in snow-infested areas of Ramnagar and scores of villages are without power and ration supply since the past ten days, said Youth Congress leader RS Pathania said. In a press statement issued here today, Pathania said that given the situation in view of unprecedented snowfall in areas of Ramnagar, particularly in Dudu-Basantgarh area, and the absence of government touch over here, threats of a starvation and epidemic break-out are looming large. The road from Ramnagar to Basantgarh is also yet to be restored while the log-like administration has taken least steps for working out the crisis-like situation prevailing over here. The situation in these areas is expected to become graver as fresh snowfall coupled with incessant rains has hit the area, he added. Pathania said that shortage of essential commodities like LPG, kerosene, household articles and power and clean drinking water may bloom up into a calamity for the people putting up over here. Also, the administration has done nothing to unfold the process for assessing the losses suffered by people on account of snowfall over here. Pathania while making a fervent appeal to the Chief Minister has sought provision of immediate measures so as to restore power, drinking water, ration supplies and spur up human and animal healthcare facilities in the area. He also sought prompt steps for restoring/opening up of road from Ramnagar to Basantgarh and Dudu besides air-dropping of ration, warm clothing, blankets and other essential commodities at Ponara, Dudu, Basantgarh, Gandh Top, Lehar, Jofar and GS Banj. Taking a dig at the local MLA, Pathania lambasted him for failing to attend to the misery-stricken people in this hour of distress and despair. |
