Amind threats life threat MC, BDC Heads asked to vacate govt housing

Amid hostile conditions when public representatives are facing life threats from militants across Kashmir valley, the district administration Bandipora on Tuesday ordered the Municipal Committee, Chairman, Sumbal and BDC Chairman Naidkhai to vacate the accommodation and warned them of initiating necessary action under law if he failed to do so in the stipulated period of time.

Jahangir Ahmad, the incumbent Chairman of Municipal Committee, Sumbal and BDC Chairman Naidkhai Ghulam Nabi Ganai in North Kashmir’s Bandipora district told CNS that they have been asked to vacate the government accommodation provided to them way back while they won the chairman elections.

While divulging the details to CNS they added that on Tuesday morning they received a letter from the Executive Engineer of I & FC, Sumbal directing them to vacate the accommodation within a stipulated period of time. Jahangir added that they have been warned of action if they fail to do so.

“Despite facing continuous threats from different quarters, we always uphold the dignity and credibility of democracy and persuade the people to believe in democracy. Why are we being directed to vacate the accommodation at a time when militant attacks on soft targets are on rise in the valley,” he said.
They alleged that this all is being done by the concerned Sub Divisional Magistrate as Jahangir said that he had confronted him several times and didn’t fall into SDM’s line.

They appealed to the DGP, IGP, SSP Bandipora and Deputy Commissioner Bandipora to intervene in the matter and take a review of the order.
