| Jammu remains non beneficiary with soft loan to mere 1 unit v | | Rehabilitation policy of sick industrial units - - 30 units get soft loan of Rs 364.07 lakhs in Kashmir region | | Early Times Report
JAMMU, Mar 2: In what can be seen as the statistical figures speaking for itself discrimination with Jammu region meted out in the industry sector too , the region has been non beneficiary or meagerly benefitted in the scheme of Rehabilitation under which government has provided soft loans to sick units for their revival during the last two years. The number of sick units in the state is 3151.
As against 30 such units from various districts of Kashmir which have been sanctioned or disbursed soft loans, in Jammu only one such unit has remained a beneficiary. Whereas a total of Rs 364.07 lakhs stands sanctioned in favour of Kashmir based sick units, Jammu region has got a paltry amount of Rs 2.29 lakhs. In Kashmir division Srinagar district has remained a major beneficiary where out of atotal number of 142 units identified as sick , 41 units were approved by State Level Rehabilitation Committee for soft loan during the last two years under NC led coalition government. Out of these an amount of Rs 167 lakhs has been sanctioned or disbursed in favour of 19 such units. The statistical figures which reflect gross discrimination with Jammu districts have been compiled by the government itself in the report of Economic Survey conducted during the year 2011-12.
Even though the number of sick units in Jammu districts is less in comparison to the number in Kashmir region, yet the rehabilitation pattern shows continuance of policy of neglect and indifference towards the Jammu region as out of even small number of identified units in sick category, barring Jammu district, no other district has been given chosen for sanctioning the amount of soft loans for revival of sick units. In Udhampur district despite 18 such sick units having been identified, SLRC has not approved a single unit for soft loan. The scenario is same for the district of Kathua (2 units),Doda (5), Rajouri (2), Poonch(5), and Samba(7), units having been identified as sick, but none of these units have so far been approved for soft loan. It is only in Jammu where out of 49 identified units , just have been approved by SLRC for approval of soft loan. However, out of these just one such unit has been sanctioned an amount of Rs 2.29 lakhs.
In Kashmir region, Anantnag is the only district where despite 73 units having been identified as sick, 3 having been approved for soft loan by SLRC, none has been a beneficiary so far. It may be mentioned that for rehabilitation of sick units , the state government has agreed to to provide soft loan to the extent of 30% of total requirement to potentially viable Sick units for their revival under Rehabilitation Policy. The number of such units across the state has been identified to be 418. Howver, out of these only 31 have been granted soft loans, 30 in Kashmir and only one in Jammu. |
