Pulwama, Dec 31: The Member of Legislative Assembly (MlA) Pulwama Waheed- ur- Rehman Para called on Prime Minister Narendra Modi to reconsider the proposed location for the new National Institute of Technology (NIT) in Pulwama.
In a tweet, as per the news agency JKNS Waheed Parra highlighted the importance of Newa’s Kherwa land, a vital almond-producing area that sustains thousands of livelihoods.
“Prime Minister, @narendramodi Ji, Newa Pulwama’s Kherwa land, a vital almond-producing area sustaining thousands of livelihoods, must not be used for the proposed NIT. We urge its relocation to Shal Dramun, Chetergam, Tral—6,000 kanals near a scenic hill, better suited for the project. FYI @dpradhanbjp, @OmarAbdullah, @nitsriofficial.
