Ensure timely resolution of public issues, Mir urges govt

Congress Legislature Party (CLP) Leader and AICC General Secretary Ghulam Ahmad Mir on Sunday asked the administration to identify and ensure timely resolution of public issues and other development needs.

“Development of people is paramount, so there should be no delay in addressing these, on priority basis, given the fact, people in both the regions have not witnessed any positive approach towards their well-being and development on the part of the BJP government at Centre” Mir said.

He said there have been numerous tall claims with respect to employment generation, completion of projects, development of lanes and drains, roads especially during back to village and various other developmental initiatives, but the reality is that both the regions of J&K have equally suffered on every count, CLP leader rued.

Ghulam Ahmad Mir was addressing a meeting of party delegates at Omoh in Verinag area of South Kashmir, where he urged upon the participants to fortify their efforts to ensure redressal of public issues and bring the party policies and programmes at grass roots level.

Addressing the delegates, Mir said J&K has been witnessing difficult situation in absence of the popular government, besides people had to face tremendous hardships, on every count, now that the elected government is in place, so there are high expectations among the public that they will get the justice, without any delay.

“The development of common man is paramount, there should be no compromise on that, Mir added and said Congress Party is committed to fight for the well-being of public and protection of their rights, which have been assaulted from time to time by the BJP government at Centre” Mir said.

“The Cente should extend every cooperation to J&K and facilitate it on every count, so that the process of development in J&K is back on the track,” Mir said.
