Large population continue to suffer: Ravinder | ‘Mega Water Filtration project Beripattan awaits sanction since 2014’ | | EARLY TIMES REPORT
SUNDERBANI, Sept 4: Former MLC and Chief Spokesperson Jammu and Kashmir Pradesh Congress Committee (JKPCC) Ravinder Sharma has alleged that a large population of Jangru, Bajabain, Kuldabbi and Bhenigala and adjoining areas are suffering due to lack of initiative to get a mega water filtration project sanctioned at Beripattan. In a series of interactions at Kangri, Bajabain and Bhenigala, Sharma questioned why the mega project conceived and submitted by him during his tenure as MLC in 2014, could not be sanctioned. He said after the sanction of Beripattan Lift Irrigation Scheme at the cost of around 52 crores, a water filtration project was submitted to the centre at the cost of over 12 crores under BADP in order to meet the drinking water needs of over a dozen villages. He said that since 2014 no initiative was taken by the public representatives and the department to get the same sanctioned. A large population of surrounding areas is today suffering due to apathy of the administration and the department as the project was not sanctioned so far. The Beripattan Lift Irrigation Scheme sanctioned by UPA government and started in early 2014, stands abandoned after over 15 crores expenditure on the power component of the same, which reflects the failure of the present government belying the false claims of the leaders. |
