As soon as the House met today for taking up the Question-Hour, members from the Congress were on their feet demanding that their Adjournment Motion be taken up after suspending the Q-Hour.
Congress member G M Saroori said an Adjournment Motion was submitted by the party members to discuss the plight of Pakistan refugees and victims of Pakistani shelling. "These are very important issues and the Q-Hour should be suspended and discussion taken up", Mr Saroori pleaded with the chair. He alleged that the Speaker is not allowing the house to discuss important issues. “There is an issue of our security as well of our legislators, former legislators, office bearers,” Saroori said and demanded to provide Z plus security to President J&K Congress. Though Congress members remained standing near their seats, the Speaker ignored the plea and took up the first question of the day.
Later, Congress members including G. M Saroori, Ajaz Ahmad Khan, Haji Abdul Rashid Dar, Vikar Rasool Wani,Usmaan Majid, Choudhary Akram, Mohammad Amin Bhat, Mumtaz Khan and Ghulam Ahmad Wani walked out after the Speaker disallowed their Adjournment Motion. However, the Congress members later returned after some time and joined the Q-Hour.
Later Congress party demanded early resumption of work on 850 MW Rattle power Project Drabshallah without further delay. This was said by Congress MLA from Inderwal, G. M Saroori who raised various important issues on the floor of the Assembly.
Saroori blamed BJP for forcing the GVK and L&T for closing down the work on the said project. “He also asked from the government about when the government will start the other power projects including PakalDul, Kiru, Kawar, Dool Hasti, Kirthai II, Lower Kalnai, Parnai, Dah, Kirn HEP and others.
Accusing Nirmal Singh of misleading people on the issue on return of Uri and Dulhasti power projects to state government; Saroori said Nirmal Singh who is also the Power Minister of the state has promised on the floor of the house that PDP-BJP government will bring back power projects to the state.
Saroori said that on one side DY CM is saying that it will bring back power projects from the central government and modalities are being worked out, on the other hand side the Centre has revealed that these projects cannot be transferred to the state in view of financial and legal hurdles.
"I want to know why is the government deceiving the people of the state and the government should reply to the people why they are fooling them," Saroori said.
Saroori demanded to end the discrimination in promotion of the officers who qualified KAS and are inducted in the Police department. He said if an officer gets Administrative line he gets the early promotion and get the IAS rank during his carrier unlike the officers who are inducted in police department. Initially they both have qualified the same exam i.e KAS but got the different departments.
He has requested Speaker to intervene and direct the government to remove these two yardsticks with the officers who gets the police department but don’t get the IPS rank like other who are in administrative department gets the IAS rank. He further said several house committees have also recommended removing discrimination with the KPS officers. Later he submitted all the documents related discrimination with the KPS in promotion to Speaker J&K Kavinder Gupta.
