| Sukhnandan’s outburst says it all | | | 
Early Times Report
Jammu, Apr 18: Former Minister and senior BJP leader Sukhnandan Choudhary has once again urged the administration to redress the issues of farmers on priority. Instead of approaching the officials directly, he is addressing them through media. It seems that the BJP leader has realized that bureaucrats are in no mood to listen and its better to highlight the woes of people through media. After visiting Phallian Mandaal area, Sukhanndan highlighted problems related to irrigation, lack of complete cleaning of small canals and irrigation canals and coin machines in harvesting wheat.
Hitting out at the Irrigation Department Chaudhary Sukhnandan said that every year farmers have to pay the compensation for negligence of the Irrigation Department. “Irrigation Department makes big promises every year to get canals cleaned and repaired, but the ground reality looks different,” he said, adding that at many places the responsibility of cleaning the irrigation drains was taken by Rural Development Department (RDD) but even they also failed to accomplish work in time. Now the situation has become so miserable that neither the Irrigation Department is cleaning small canals nor the Rural Development Department is taking concrete steps for cleaning the small canals due to which farmers are frustrated and disappointed.
“The outburst of the former Minister has brought to the fore the frustration of the BJP leaders. They are not being heard, nor are their suggestions being taken into consideration. This is the plight of local BJP leaders, one can imagine what the common man is facing. The Babu Raaj in J&K has left everyone in lurch. The bureaucrats have turned monarchs and are calling the shots,” an observer told Early Times. |
