| NC stages dharna against JMC, seeks shifting of garbage dump | | | JAMMU, Dec 14 : Activists of National Conference District Committee Jammu Urban staged a massive protest dharna near Gole Panjpeer in Talab Tillo area against Jammu Municipal Corporation for dumping the solid waste in the area, which has become a potential threat to the residents in close vicinity.
Protest led by Jammu Urban President and former Deputy Mayor Dharamveer Singh Jamwal, the protesters expressed anguish over the Corporation making the place as dumping ground despite standing court orders.
He cautioned the JMC against continuation of this menace saying that this has become a dangerous health hazard for the people, not only in the close vicinity but in the immediate neighbourhood also. He said the solid waste has all the potential to pollute the two major pumping stations which are source of drinking water to a huge chunk of population residing in Jain Colony, Vishal Nagar, Sundar Nagar, Indira Colony, Vijay Nagar, Amar Colony, Gole Panjpeer and Munshi Chak.
The dharna was lifted when the Joint Municipal Commissioner and other officers came to the spot and assured the protesters that necessary measures would be taken to redress their problems.
He said that the people will not allow the Corporation to install the plant as this is going to be a constant irritant for the area. He said that National Conference will not allow the pollution of Surya Putri Tawi and all such attempts would be foiled. |
