Jammu: A delegation of opposition National Conference led by its president Dr Farooq Abdullah on Wednesday met governor NN Vohra here and complained about ‘unilateral’ decisions taken by the government regarding some administrative units.
The delegations comprised NC leaders and members from Nowshera, Sunderbani and Kalakote. Devinder Singh Rana, MLA, also accompanied the delegation.
Recalling the past history of Administrative Re-organisation of the State, the delegation complained about the unilateral decision of the State Government to post an Additional Deputy Commissioner to supervise the functioning of the Kotranka Sub-Division, an official spokesman said. It was complained that the Government has so far been taking the position in the State Assembly that new Administrative Units would be set up when the required funds become available. In this context it was demanded that the geographically difficult and relatively undeveloped areas of Nowshera, Kalakote, and Sunderbani Sub-Divisions call for much greater attention and in this context, they demanded that an Additional Deputy Commissioner should be posted at a suitable agreed station to look after this entire area.
Governor assured the delegation that he would discuss their demand with the Chief Minister.
