Reacting to the Prime Minister’s visit to
the State on Tuesday, JKPCC chief GA Mir has said that Prime
Minister has disappointed people as they were expecting that
ration and other issues concerning people would be resolved
but the visit proved to be a formality and nothing beyond
that.
In a press statement the PCC chief said it was also expected
that Prime Minister besides addressing other issues would also
respond to the rehabilitation issue of flood hit traders,
business community, who have suffered heavily due to
September 2014 deluge, but the visit of Prime Minister proved
that he seems less concerned about the rehabilitation of
flood affected business community.
Describing the recent meetings of Chief Minister Mehbooba
Mufti with Prime Minister and other Union Ministers, in the
Union capital as a complete failure, Mr Mir said that Chief
Minister has failed to convince the Prime Minister in respect
of increase in scale of ration and others issues confronting
people in the State. The Chief Minister’s tall claims and
promises have fallen flat.
PCC chief further said that it was also expected from the PM
that he would pass directions to armed forces to exercise
maximum restraint while dealing with law and order situation,
but that too, has not happened which is an embarrassment
for the State Government.
