| BJP demands action against Revenue officials in Defence land scam | | | Early Times Report
Jammu , June 5: A BJP deputation led by party's National Secretary & former MP Dr. Kirit Samaiya and State President Shamsher Singh Manhas called on the Deputy Chief Minister Tara Chand on Tuesday at Jammu and demanded immediate action against the state Revenue Officers involved in Defence land scam adjacent to Srinagar Airport.
In a meeting that took place in a cordial atmosphere, Kirit Somaiya explained to Dy. CM that while the Defence authorities had already initiated action against the officials convicted in the scam, the J&K state government was for reasons best known to it, dragging its feet on the issue. Somaiya also referred to his meeting with Union Defence Minister A.K. Antony following which the false NOCs issued by certain defence officials for the land adjoining Srinagar Airport had been referred for cancellation. Somaiya further explained that such a big scam could not have taken place without the connivance of certain officials in the revenue department of the state government.
Shamsher Singh Manhas informed the Dy. CM about the party's concern regarding the Tawi lake scandal in which land encroachments by certain influential persons in the government had been facilitated by bifurcatingA river tawi in an unscientific manner which could lead to calamity at the time of floods etc. Manhas said that the party will from time to time furnish full details about various other scams also and it expected the coalition government to cooperate with BJP in its fight against corruption. The Deputy Chief Minister gave a patient hearing to the deputation and assured necessary action in the matter. He also said that he would be happy to receive from the BJP's anti-scam committee members whatever new evidence and information they have on the different cases of corruption and scams so that his office can also pursue them in right earnest. |
