Govt unmoved as power, water crisis deepens across Jammu region: Uday Chib, Hari Singh | | | Early Times Report
JAMMU, June 25: Uday Bhanu Chib, former Youth Congress President of J&K and presently the National General Secretary of the Indian Youth Congress (IYC), along with Hari Singh Chib, Vice President of the Jammu and Kashmir Pradesh Congress Committee (JKPCC), raised grave concerns about the worsening power and water crisis in the Jammu division. Amidst a sweltering heat-wave, several areas of the Jammu division are grappling with severe water and power shortages, a situation that the authorities have failed to address adequately. The senior Congress leaders voiced these concerns while addressing a workers’ meeting held at Upper Barnai Mohallah. Pandit Luxmi Chand, Congress leader and President Ward No 65, apprised the senior Congress leaders of the problems faced by the people in the area, primarily due to the acute shortage of power and drinking water. He said that the Public Health Engineering (PHE) supply is available only once every 3-4 days, and even then, only for a few minutes. This dire situation has compelled many to purchase water tanks for drinking purposes. He also expressed their dissatisfaction with the damaged condition of the lanes and drains in their locality, further exacerbating their plight. Uday Bhanu Chib stated that the ongoing heat-wave has only intensified the suffering of the people in Jammu and the present dispensation has miserably failed to address people issues. He termed it as an unacceptable that in this day and age, people are forced to purchase water for their basic needs. The government must take immediate action to address these issues and provide relief to the suffering masses.” Uday Chib said that the BJP led Government at the Centre has miserably failed to live up to the expectations of people of J&K. He appealed to Govt to ensure availability of basic felicities like ration, power, health, education sector & unemployment which is the right of general public. |
