JAMMU, SEPT 29:
Apni Party General Secretary Vikram Malhotra today accused Jammu Municipal Corporation of treating Ward No 4 step-motherly in Jammu East.
“The people are suffering because of the biased approach of JMC towards the above said ward. The selective approach of the Corporation is highly condemnable as the people have been compelled to suffer in absence of basic amenities,” said Malhotra.
He was speaking at a joining programme in which Janta Dal Secular’s Vice President, Hukam Chand Andotra (Dorga) alongwith supporters from Jammu East Assembly Constituency today joined Apni Party in presence of Party President, Syed Mohammed Altaf Bukhari.
The joining programme was organised by General Secretary, Vikram Malhotra in which Andotra alongwith Opender Nath, S.K. Tadyal, Divyanshu, Amit Kumar, Lalit Verma, Chandana, and others joined the Apni Party.
Altaf Bukhari welcomed them into the Party and hoped that their joining would strengthen the Party. Apni Party’s State Youth Wing, Vice President, and Media Coordinator, Raqeeq Ahmed Khan was also present.
Speaking on the occasion, Vikram Malhotra said that the JMC has completely failed to come up to the expectation of the people and the people are made to suffer.
“The supporters of a political party are getting the attention of the Corporation and others are ignored with regard to cleanliness, developmental works,” he said.
He said that the Corporation has been working on the directions of a political party. “It is unfortunate that the elected representatives of these wards represent their party, not the people of the ward. We have received numerous complaints and conveyed at the appropriate levels that Corporation works in a democratic manner, but it is not happening,” he said and urged on to end the one party’s rule on Corporation.
