Rajouri, Dec 24: Apni Party Vice-President and Former Minister, Choudhary Zulfkar Ali Saturday demanded completion of the pending developmental projects in Rajouri.
Addressing a public meeting in Gura Sarkari in Darhal, Rajouri, Choudhary Zulfkar Ali appealed to the authorities to provide basic amenities to the people in rural and remote areas of Rajouri district.
He said that the people are deprived of health, and education infrastructure. “Poor infrastructure and human resources shortage in health and educational institutions has disturbed the normal life as the people have to cover long distances from their remote areas to get medical care or education,” he said.
Referring to the plight of the students, he said that the students from the remote areas especially from Gura have to travel long distances to get education in the Govt School even for primary education.
He, therefore, demanded High School of the area (Gura) and construction of a road from Gura Sarkari to Mandar Gala via kurina Deri up to Mander Gala.
He also demanded that the electricity charges should be waived off in favour of the villagers as they do not use much electricity and are recovering double bills.
Choudhary Zulfikar said that these farmers should be treated on the basis of BPL ration card under NFSA PHH category considering their financial condition by the PDD.
“There is no alternative to an elected Govt. For the last over 3 years, the LG administration has been working in place of an elected Govt which has widened the gap with the public,” he said.
He said that “To end the public suffering and ensure development in every nook and corner, the holding of assembly elections is a must in Jammu and Kashmir.”
