Anantnag July 11(KNS): The deteriorating security situation besides the series of terrorist attacks in different districts of Jammu and Kashmir reflects the absolute failure of the Centre Govt on the security front. The loss of Army and Security Forces personnel is extremely disturbing and highly condemnable. The claims to have restored peace and eliminated terrorism after the reorganization of J&K is contrary to the ground situation, the fact remains that terrorism has risen considerably.
Congress strongly condemn the terrorist attacks on Army and Security Forces personnel urging upon the Centre to take effective measures to restore a conducive atmosphere. J&K is going to polls shortly as per the Supreme Court directions, so it is paramount to maintain peace and ensure that democratic process is restored, besides the safety of common people ensured in J&K.
All India Congress Committee (AICC) General Secretary and Former J&K Congress President Ghulam Ahmad Mir made these comments during his two-day tour of different areas in south Kashmir where he met various public delegations, who briefed him about their grievances.
Referring to the recent terrorist attacks in Rajouri, Poonch, Reasi, Doda and Kulgam districts, Mir said Centre Govt has failed to eliminate terrorism leading to the loss of precious lives of Army, security forces personnel and civilians in different districts of J&K. Our brave soldiers are attaining martyrdom in line of duty. The Government must explain to the public as to what measures it is taking to contain terrorism. We cannot afford to continue loosing our brave soldiers, Mir added.Click Here To Follow Our WhatsApp Channel
AICC General Secretary asked the BJP to stop misleading the public either on the development or security front and accept that they have failed on all fronts despite being in power for more than ten years. It (BJP) stands exposed for failing people on all fronts, Mir said.
Mir during his twoday tour met a series of public delegations at Badur, Mohripora, Tangward, Hardpora, Shankerpora and Nowpora areas of Doru constituency of South Kashmir where he was apprised about the various issues concerning the public , especially the drinking water crisis. He was told that people are being supplied contaminated water leading to various health problems.
AICC General Secretary rued that supply of contaminated water has led to the various water borne diseases, which is a matter of grave concern. He termed it a big failure on the part of the administration , especially the PHE Department and sought an appropriate supply of drinking water to the public after proper purification to avoid further crises.
On this occasion, Mir said the Congress Party shall continue to highlight the Govt failures on all fronts especially security, development, employment and various other fronts. We have made the BJP accountable and answerable to people and will continue to fight for safeguarding public rights. There have been tremendous losses to J&K due to the policies of the BJP after abandoning people of their democratic rights. The time has come when they (people) will elect their representative democratically, who will represent them at every appropriate forum and ensure redressal of their issues.(KNS)
