Early Times Report
Srinagar, Apr 20: Seeking intervention of the Modi government, prominent singer Mehmeet Syed on April 20 accused the administration of Rs 5 crore scam in Dubai trip last year adding that the artists were not paid their dues.
Addressing media here, Mehmeet flanked by noted singers like Waqar Khan said the artists were part of Jammu and Kashmir administration’s Dubai trip in 2022.
She said the artists were assured of Rs 2.5 lakh payment but that despite passing of a year, the dues were not cleared.
She said what was even shocking was that Rs five crore were spend on the trip. “If even Rs 2.5 lakh haven’t been cleared where has the money gone?” she asked seeking an inquiry.
“We need justice. It’s matter of our dignity and honor. They can’t play with our dignity,” she said. The artist fraternity has sought intervention of Prime Minister, Narendra Modi, Union Home Minister, Amit Shah and Lieutenant Governor, Manoj Sinha into the matter.
The JK Government had held that Dubai summit in January last year.
With the aim to boost investment in Jammu and Kashmir, the union territory government had signed several important MoUs with UA-based Al Maya Group, MATU Investments LLC, GL Employment Brokerage LLC and Noon.
Addressing the Investors Summit at Dubai, Lt Governor Manoj Sinha had highlighted the strong business scenario in Jammu and Kashmir.
"Relationship between India and UAE has matured enough over the years to become enduring 'Global Partners' in the 21st Century. These are those times in the journey of Jammu and Kashmir where opportunities are in plenty," observed the Lt Governor.
"We are devising new paths, new policies, creating critical infrastructure and unlocking the business potential of Jammu and Kashmir to strengthen our business ecosystem for the post-pandemic world and embarking on the journey of growth and development," he had said.
“Due to transparent policies, ease of doing business, the government was able to clock investment proposals worth Rs 45,000 crore and additional Rs 18,300 crore in real estate sector,” the Lt Governor had added. |
