Srinagar: Pradesh Congress
Committee (PCC) president Prof Saif-u-Din Soz has said that the people in
Kashmir have suffered because of heavy snowfall coupled with the poor
administration.
According to a statement issued to KNS, Prof Soz said:
“Kashmir valley and higher reaches of Jammu Province have experienced heavy
snow fall and that too in March, which is known in history as the month when
the spring arrives and the almonds and other trees bloom all over. He said:
“Since I was in Srinagar I know full well how people suffered for electric
power, drinking water and other basic facilities of life. Many government
servants extended a helping hand while others failed to do so.”
The PCC chief has added: “It is on such trying occasions
that the muscle of the Administration is tested best. I express my anguish at
the sad death of a dozen persons in avalanches. I urge the state Administration
to rise to the occasion and provide the needed facilities to the people. The
damage of all kind of properties must be assessed properly and compensation
offered, at the earliest.” (KNS)
