Govt deprived people of basic amenities: Kapoor
Strengthen hands of Arvind Kejriwal for equitable development
UDHAMPUR: The J&K Government has miserably failed to address people issues with all the schemes of central having proved to be a hoax. He castigated the J&K Government for plunging the people of the state into a hell of miseries by adopting anti-people policies.
This was stated Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Raj Kapoor after interacting with people of remote Village Mottu, Tehsil Majalta of district Udhampur.
The AAP leader said that Jammu and Kashmir is today facing the worst power and water crisis ever witnessed post-independence. He said that the situation has become utterly hopeless in this regard during the past eight years of Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) rule and people are feeling disgusted with the ongoing misgovernance in which the interests of the bureaucrats have accorded top priority with the common man left to fend for himself.
Kapoor asserted that it is an irony of the people of J&K that while the Government continues making tall claims regarding success of ‘Har Ghar Jal’ programme ensuring tap water to every household, the ground situation reveals that majority of people are facing the worst water crisis. He said the inhabitants of Village Mottu have to cover a distance of 2 KM to arrange water for any function or ceremonies but unfortunately the administration has not showing any serious concern towards this grave issue. He alleged that hundreds of crores have been spent under Jal Jeevan Mission and still the people are suffering.
The senior AAP leader lamented that on one hand BJP Government at the Centre is celebrating 75 years of Amrit Mahotsav but at the same time on the other hand people in Jammu region are struggling to survive amid due to shortage of even the basic amenities other, not to talk of other facilities. He asserted that there is no road connectivity of inner villages, people facing power and water crises and scarcity of medical facilities.
Kapoor observed that a nearby Village Sohan is blessed with good weather as the area is good in producing green vegetable but unfortunately due to lack of road connectivity, the residents of the Sohan village not able to sell these vegetable in the market.
The senior AAP leader asserted that if the present government is unable to provide employment to youth of J&K then atleast the government should provide road network so that the youth of Sohan Village will manage their household expenses by selling vegetables in the market.
Kapoor appealed to the people of the area to strengthen the hands of AAP National Convenor and Delhi Chief Minister, Arvind Kejriwal to get out from the miseries being faced by them and also for equitable development in Jammu and Kashmir.
