Expressing concern over continuous shelling from across the border on civilian areas, Provincial Youth National Conference President and former MLA Ajaz Jan on Saturday assailed the PDP-BJP government for its indifference towards the suffering people.
According to a statement issued to KNS, interacting with the shelling sufferers during his visit to the border village of Chapriya this morning, Jan said the government cannot abdicate its responsibility when the border dwellers were passing through most difficult times. He said the night long shelling has damaged four houses in the village fully and 10 others partially while two villagers have sustained injuries.
“The administration has not woken up from its slumber as the injured villagers had to be shifted in a private vehicle to Mandi hospital due to absence of medical facilities or the ambulance”, he lamented, saying the government should not test the patience of people.Click Here To Follow Our WhatsApp ChannelHe said the district administration too was callous towards the people as nobody has visited the sufferers so far.
