AJKPC holds protest against illegal mining in border village Fateh Kotli | | | Early Times Report JAMMU, Sept 16: All Jammu and Kashmir Panchayat Conference (AJKPC) today took their campaign against illegal mining 'mafia; to border village, Fateh Kotli in Gakhral Panchayat-located few meters away from International Border-of Pargwal block and demanded immediate stern action against those indulged in illegal mining. Led by UT President, Anil Sharma, scores of Sarpanches and Panches along with local natives of Fateh Kotli, mostly members of Gujjar community, held strong demonstration against rampant illegal mining along the Chenab basin and accused the geology and mining department of facilitating the illegal practices on monetary considerations. The AJKPC leaders also installed national tricolour atop every household in Fateh Kotli village where the members of Gujjar community said that they are committed to keep national flag high in the border belts as well as to give a befitting reply to any misadventure by the Pakistan along the border. "The big machines including JCBs have been deployed by the mining mafia to illegally lift minor minerals including sand and gravel from Chenab river bed without any fear of law. This is not possible without the active support of law enforcing agencies. The rampant digging on the river bed has diverted the flow of Chenab water and it will put local habitations in danger if immediate corrective measures are not taken," Anil said. |
