| Declare Guru Gyagi's birthday as public holiday: Batwal community | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Dec 29: A meeting of the Jammu and Kashmir Batwal Community was held here which was chaired by by Ex Naib Sarpanch Ram Lal Lakhotra and attended by a large number of community members. The meeting said that a series of memorandums submitted in the Governor House in the past one decade have fetched no relief to Batwals so far.
The meeting urged the present Governor Satya Pal Malik to look into the matter please. The meeting appealed the Governor to declare Guru Gyagi's birthday (which falls on Magh Purnima every year) as public holiday in the Jammu district so that all concerned employees and students could participate in Guru's birth commemorative functions.
The meeting also appealed Government of India to take an immediate action on the survey report of ethnographic study of J&K Batwals, undertaken by the Planning Commission of India in 1994 so that steps are taken to ameliorate living standard of the rearmost Batwals of the State. Earlier, the meeting congratulated community's newly elected Sarpanchs, Panchs, Municipal Corporator and Town Area Committee members. |
