| NC holds massive protest rally against NFSA at Banihal | | | Early Times Report
BANIHAL, Feb 22: National Conference on Monday staged a massive protest demonstration at Banihal in protest against the implementation of anti-people National Food Security Act across the state.
Led by District President Ramban Sajjad Shaheen, the demonstrators presented a memorandum to Governor N N Vohra, through the Sub Divisional Magistrate, registering strong resentment against the decision.
Addressing the protesters Shaheen described the implementation of the Act as a sadistic measure of the PDP-BJP government and called for its immediate roll back. He said the implementation is poised to deprive huge chunk of population of much needed rations, as due thought has not been given while moving ahead in the anti-people measure.
He also referred to discrepancies in the ration cards, prepared in accordance with the NFSA, saying that instead of solving the problems, it has caused enormous difficulties to the rationed population.
The District President also expressed anguish over non-availability of food stock at the CAPD depots, saying the rationed population has been suffering adversely for want of much needed food grains.
Shaheen also referred to lackadaisical approach of the administration in satiating the urges of the people on account of development, adding that most of the works have either been put to backburner or being executed at snail's pace. He pleaded for fillip to the developmental tempo so that the imitative taken during the tenure of former Chief Minister Omar Abdullah gets a big push. Senior office bearers of the National Conference also addressed the protest rally. |
