| Come out of your offices to see how people are struggling : Munish to officials | | Gadigarh residents demand basic amenities, ask admin to act | |  Early Times Report
Jammu, Sept 19: Residents of Lower Gadigarh area are up in arms against the administration for its alleged failure to provide them with basic amenities. Gadighar is a part of the Gandhi Nagar constituency and is a glaring example of the official apathy and neglect.
According to the residents successive regimes just ignored them. “Roads in our area are in dilapidated condition. Drains are in shambles and the garbage remains unattended for days together,” residents told Early Times.
They demanded that authorities should pay a heed towards the basic necessities of the people and address their genuine concerns without any delay. “Even slight rainfall turns these lanes and by lanes into a cesspool. The garbage gets littered due to delay in its collection,” they added.
“The garbage including the polythene sheets gets collected in the drains that leads to these outlets getting choked. Foul smell emanating from these drains has made our lives miserable,” residents added. They said that many health related issues in the area are due to the dust that emanates due to bad roads in the area. The residents said that they are craving for the basic amenities and it is the duty of the government to provide them all the facilities. They said that people of the area are living a primitive life since the basic amenities are being denied to them. Meanwhile, Editor-in-Chief Early Times, who would be contesting the forthcoming assembly elections as an independent candidate, urged the authorities to wake up from deep slumber and come for the rescue of the residents.
“People of the area have been left to fend for themselves. It’s unfortunate that no concrete action is being taken to resolve the issues confronting the people,” said Munish. He said that residents are demanding their basic rights and it’s the duty of the administration to provide these. “The officials sitting in their posh offices need to peep out of their windows and see for themselves how people are struggling even for basic things,” Munish added.
He demanded that the government should expedite the process of resolving the issues being confronted by the people.
