Srinagar May 05(KNS)Congress leader Kadfeen Choudhary on Tuesday said that at a time when the dispensation is caught with the covid19 outbreak, keeping the secretariat functional at Jammu as well as in Srinagar has only caused confusion and chaos in the already crises ridden administration.

Kadfeen in a statement issued here has said that the government must take into consideration the hardships being faced by the people to get their grievances addressed due to the discreet mode of functioning of the government with no one having any idea where in actual is the civil secretariat based- in Srinagar or in Jammu

He added that the government must come clean on the issue of whether it has abolished more than 170-year-old practice of Darbar Move or it is still intact and alive. “Even in the bureaucratic circles, there is confusion over where and in which region they have to establish their offices at the end of the day. If those at the helm are confused, imagine the plight of a common who yearns to get his grievances addressed without moving from pillar to post. The secretariat in Srinagar is functional with records left in Jammu. Those who have their pleas and cases submitted in civil secretariat have no idea whether to contact Jammu secretariat or Srinagar,” said Kadfeen.

He urged the Jammu and Kashmir administration to end the confusion at an earliest and guide and people in the right direction instead of exposing them to severe hardships amid the present pandemic, he said in statement issued to (KNS)
