Anguished over Frequent Attacks on Panchayat Members
Jammu, 28/Dec16: Taking up very strongly
against the Jammu and Kashmir government for their complete silence over the
repeated target of panchayat members by the anti national elements, All Jammu
Kashmir Panchayat Conference called it as inhuman approach of the government.
Anil Sharma, president of the Organization
while speaking in a gathering of panchs, Sarpanch in Nagrota Assembly
Constituency anguished over the attack on Panch Bashir Ahmad Sheikh at
Ashtengoo in Bandipora 2 days back.
He Said, holding panchayat elections for
the sake of only funds without empowerment and security means nothing but a
fake exercise of the government.
"The Government is least serious in
ensuring security of the gullible panchayat members but in stead beating their
chest on the name of holding panchayat election, simply they are befooling the
innocent villagers", he said.
The Pannchayat leader asked the State
police chief to provide at least need based security to the panchayat members
who are apprehensive of their life.
In atmosphere of fear for life and security
threat the panchayat leaders are unable to reach the remote and vulnerable
areas of the state, he stated.
Other panchayat members present on the
occassion also shared their concern over the apathetic approach of the state
government towards Panchayati Raj Institutions and castigated the decision of
the government to hold indirect elections for the Sarpanches.. They too called
for constitutional status for PRI's and implementation of 73rd amenment of
Indian constitution here in the state.
