Objection filed against word "Darbar" | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, May 19 : Calling it as shadow of Monarchy, objections have been submitted to Chief Minister Omar Abdullah with an appeal to direct the State General Administration Department to issue a General Circular cautioning all the Ministers, Officers and Departments not to use word "Darbar" for their "Public Meeting". While making an appeal to the Chief Minister through C.M Grievance Cell [JKGRIEVANCE.NIC.IN] vide case no. 32034 , RTI activist Raman Sharma has urged "We are a democratic country and state, the people of this country and particularly of Jammu and Kashmir State have negated the idea of Monarchy some 60 years ago and chose a democratic set up, but unfortunately even today after more than 6 decades the shadow of monarch system appears to be existed in the mindset of our honourable Ministers and Bureaucrats." While giving details about his appeal to the Chief Minister, Raman said , Now a days the word 'Darbar' is in vogue in the official press releases. Junior Officers are blatantly using this word to appease Ministers and senior officers. Right from public meetings of Cabinet Ministers to the Rank of S.D.M, all officers irrespective of their file and rank are using the word 'Darbar'. He demanded that the word "Darbar" be replaced with "Public Meeting". "Being a citizen of this democratic republic Country and Democratic State, I feel and find this word very objectionable and it sounds like that we the citizens are the subject and these officers and ministers are our masters. It is against the values and principles of democratic establishment of equality. I hope your good self will issue necessary directions in this regard" his appeal concludes. |
