Excelsior Correspondent
JAMMU, Oct 21: BJP today
said it was the “dynasty politics”
that led to the downfall of
Congress in the recently -held
Assembly
elections
in
Maharashtra and Haryana.
“Now Congress is saying
‘Priyanka
Lao
Congress
Bachao’ (bring Priyanka to save
Congress) which vindicates our
stand that Congress has always
promoted the dynastic rule and
it has faith in only one family,”
Jammu and Kashmir BJP
spokesman Balbir Ram Rattan
said.
“It is the dynasty politics that
has led to the downfall of
Congress, first in the Lok Sabha
elections and now in the
Assembly elections in the two
states,” Balbir said.
He said Congress does not
believe in democracy as it promotes only one clan to head the
party.
“They (Congress) only rely
on Gandhi surname and on the
other hand our party (BJP) has
given many prominent leaders
to the country,” he said.
Rattan said BJP gave the
nation a Prime Minister who had
already proven his mettle in
Gujarat.
“Gujarat development model
which the entire nation was
yearning to follow, they were
fed up with a rubber stamp
prime minister and BJP gave the
people of the country a true
leader,” he said.

KATHUA, Oct 21: There is
a brewing public resentment in
Samba and Kathua districts
especially in the Kandi belt as
people are facing constant
water scarcity for months
together due to the break down
of scores of sub stations of
PHE.
According to sources the
most affected areas included
Hiranagar, Kathua, Basholi,
Billawar, Bani and Samba
tehsils.
The issue was also taken up
by MLA Basholi Jagdish Raj
Sapolia
with
Deputy
Commissioner Kathua who
sought his immediate intervention in restoration of pump stations in Kandi belt which has
led to public outcry.
Mr Sapolia said that the
authorities have restored some
pump stations while they have
assured to restore the remaining
within days.
Not only in Basohli but people in Kathua, Hirangar, Bani
and Billawar tehsils of Kathua
district and Samba tehsil are
also facing acute water scarcity
due to breakdown of sub stations of PHE Department at
various places.
To over come the problem
the authorities have pressed in
water tankers in these localities
but they are unable to cater to
the growing needs of the people
said Ramesh Lal a resident of
Koota Hiranagar.
He said even people faced
acute water scarcity during the
holy festival of Navratra. MLA
Hiranagar Durga Dass while
admitting that the Kandi belt of
his Constituency is worst hit by
water shortage alleged that the
authorities have failed to overcome the problem over the
years with the result the people
are suffering a lot.
Sources said over 40 sub
stations are defunct in Kathua
district alone while over a
dozen substations are defunct in
Samba district whose restoration needs on war footing as the
public resentment is growing
against the same.
However when contacted
Executive Engineer, PHE
Kathua said that there are 300
substations in the Kathua PHE
Division alone and out of them
20 to 25 can remain non functional due to various reasons
like power failure, mechanical
fault etc. This is a routine affair,
he added.
He said however many sub
stations have been restored and
the problem was caused due to
recent floods and hail storm. He
expressed the hope that the
remaining substations will also
be restored by Diwalai.
Executive Engineer PHE
Samba said that the problem
took place due to heavy rains
and floods in the last month.
However maximum sub stations were restored while one
are two are still defunct due to
power failure.
Teachers highlight
grievances
Excelsior Correspondent
JAMMU, Oct 21: An emergency meeting of All Jammu
Kashmir and Ladakh Teachers
Federation and Jammu Kashmir
State Teachers Association was

teachers, who are running from
pillar to post for the joining or
relieving after revocation of
Government Order number
1038-GAD of 2014, dated
11.10-2014.
The meet said that despite
directions of higher authorities
