He said that leadership of both countries must take the issue seriously and save their people from more damage. He added that in the era of 21st Century, when people should have demands like IT , universities, Laboratories etc , they are demanding bunkers to save their lives. 'This is injustice with the people living on borders', he said, adding that the people in Rajouri and Poonch have always become scapegoat of border tension.
"Pakistan is our neighbouring country. In fact both the countries should maintain not just good relations but friendly relations with each others because , 'Friends change, but neighbours do not" he added.The Minister said that State government is doing all means to help these border firing victims. He said that Chief Minister has personally visited these areas and announced that government will provide relief and also construct individual bunkers and community bunkers.

He said that state cannot move ahead till all the villages are developed and Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti is very concerned about the development of rural areas.

During the public redressal camps, Minister gave patience hearing to the problem of the people and passed necessary instruction to the concerned officers and assured the people to resolve their genuine issue within shortest possible time. He directed all the concerned officers to make frequent visits and organise the awareness camps in the far flung areas so that the downtrodden rural people could know about the various social welfare schemes and the benefit of these schemes could percolate to the needy masses.
