Kotli: The Jammu and Kashmir Joint Public Action Committee has released a statement following a recent meeting, expressing deep dissatisfaction with the government’s continued delay in addressing various public demands.
The committee highlighted several key issues, including unfulfilled promises regarding electricity bills, reduced and substandard wheat flour distribution, and the failure to dismiss ongoing cases against the public.
In response to these grievances, the committee has announced plans to intensify its protest movement against what it describes as retaliatory actions by the authorities. A deadline of September 15 has been set for the government to fulfill its commitments.
No state backing. No paywalls. Just truth. Support Kashmir's independent voice. Join 2,400+ patrons who fund independent voices.
If the demands are not met by this date, the committee warned that it would launch a vigorous protest against the government during its foundation day rally on September 17.
Additionally, the committee strongly rejected the government’s initiative to allow the Green Tourism Company to take control of the state’s tourist sites. The committee called for an immediate ban on the activities of Green Tourism Company within the region, citing concerns over the appropriation of local resources.
The committee’s spokesperson, Shoukat Nawaz Mir, emphasized that the people of Jammu and Kashmir will not tolerate any further neglect or broken promises from the government. The upcoming protest is expected to draw significant public support as the committee prepares to escalate its demands for justice and fair treatment.
