I envision a Jammu Kashmir where every young girl grows up believing that her dreams are valuable, her voice is powerful, and her future holds limitless possibilities, the Lieutenant Governor said. The Lieutenant Governor exuded confidence that the fellowship program of Kashmir Women's Organization will propagate the core principle that women deserve equal, dignified participation across all social, cultural, economic and political spheres. We must remain steadfast in our resolve to accord due respect to our Nari Shakti, while creating an environment that fosters their capabilities and progress. When women progress, society progresses; when women lead, the nation scales new heights; and when women realize their dreams, the entire world becomes more just, more compassionate, and more prosperous, the Lieutenant Governor said. The Lieutenant Governor emphasized the need to address the rising challenge of substance abuse among women. He advised the fellows to conduct a comprehensive, region-specific analysis to identify its underlying root causes. He said that this study will significantly strengthen rehabilitation frameworks and provide vital support to our daughters and sisters who have fallen victim to drug addiction. The Lieutenant Governor also commended the guides who mentored the fellows throughout the program. He hoped that the dedication of all the members of Kashmir Womens Organization would serve as a catalyst for positive change in the lives of countless women in the years to come. On the occasion, the Lieutenant Governor released a book titled Panchayati Raj Institutions and Municipal Council in India, written by Dr. Nazrul Islam. Dr. Fida Firdous, President, Kashmir Writers Association, Dr. Darakshan Hassan Bhat, President, Kashmir Womens Organization, members of Kashmir Writers Association and Kashmir Women's Organization and senior officials attended the felicitation ceremony.

Srinagar,July 3: A high level delegation of the Kashmir Traders & Manufacturers Federation (KTMF) led by its President Mohammad Yaseen Khan today called on the Honble Chief Minister of Jammu & Kashmir Omar Abdullah and held an extensive meeting on several long-pending issues concerning traders, traditional artisans and workers across Kashmir. The delegation comprised of senior KTMF functionary Qazi Tauseef, Ghulam Hassan Parra President Ganderbal Traders Federation, Mehrajuddin Sheikh Vice President Ganderbal Traders Federation, Jan Mohammad Misgar Chairman Kashmir Copper Workers Trade Union, Arshid Ahmad Khan President Kashmir Copper Workers Trade Union. During the meeting the Ganderbal Traders Federation raised serious concerns regarding the proposed displacement of several shopkeepers due to ongoing and upcoming developmental works. They urged the Chief Minister to ensure that no trader is rendered livelihood less and called for a comprehensive rehabilitation package, including suitable relocation before any displacement is undertaken. Kashmir Copper Workers Trade Union, representing nearly 50,000 workers highlighted the alarming decline of Kashmirs centuries old copper craft. The Union strongly demanded an immediate ban on machine made copper products, stating that such products have severely impacted the livelihood of thousands of local craftsmen and artisans. It appealed to the Government to introduce effective measures for protecting genuine handmade copperware, preserving the traditional craft and ensuring sustainable employment for artisans associated with the sector. The delegation also discussed several other issues concerning the welfare of copper workers, including institutional support, market protection, promotion of indigenous craftsmanship and policy interventions aimed at reviving the traditional industry. Another major issue raised by the KTMF was the long pending rental disputes involving traders under the Housing & Urban Development Department. KTMF delegation requested the Chief Minister to direct the concerned authorities to resolve these matters on priority, as prolonged uncertainty has caused considerable financial hardship to the affected traders. Speaking after the meeting, Mohammad Yaseen Khan said, The trading community, traditional artisans and workers have been facing several genuine issues for years. We urged the Honble Chief Minister to address these matters on priority, particularly the rehabilitation of displaced traders, protection of Kashmirs traditional copper industry from machine-made products and resolution of pending rental issues. These concerns directly affect the livelihoods of thousands of families and deserve immediate government intervention. He added that KTMF remains committed to safeguarding the interests of the business community while working closely with the Government for the economic development of Jammu & Kashmir. The Honble Chief Minister gave a patient hearing to all the issues presented by the delegation and assured them that each matter would be examined sympathetically. He assured the delegation that the Government is committed to addressing the genuine concerns of traders, artisans and workers and that appropriate action would be taken for the early redressal of the issues.

Statehood not for sale at Jantar Mantar: Altaf Bukhari

Outsourcing jobs a grave injustice to unemployed youth Srinagar, July 2: Apni Party president Syed Mohammad Altaf Bukhari on Thursday launched a sharp attack on the National Conference (NC)-led government, accusing it of failing to deliver on key promises made during the 2024 Assembly elections and terming its proposed sit-in at Jantar Mantar for statehood restoration a political gimmick. Addressing a workers convention at Kunzer in Tangmarg, Bukhari said the ruling party had misled people and failed to fulfil commitments including one lakh jobs, free electricity, LPG cylinders, regularisation of daily wagers, and enhancement of ration quota. Statehood is not something that can be achieved through protests in Delhi. This is only an attempt to divert attention from governance failures, he said, adding that public frustration was growing due to unfulfilled promises. He urged party workers to gear up for upcoming Panchayat and Urban Local Bodies elections, saying people now recognise the gap between empty promises and genuine service. Bukhari also called for permitting local communities to continue traditional manual mining activities under regulated permits, and reiterated his demand for dialogue between the Centre and the people of Jammu and Kashmir to bridge the trust deficit. He also sought release of detainees and compensation for farmers affected by recent hailstorms and rains. Senior vice president Ghulam Hassan Mir accused the ruling party of centralising power and weakening democratic institutions, saying even elected representatives were being denied freedom to serve the public. He demanded immediate conduct of Panchayat and ULB elections. Provincial president Mohammad Ashraf Mir criticised outsourcing of government jobs and alleged that the existing reservation policy had created widespread resentment, saying the government had failed to address key youth concerns. The convention also saw several political and social activists joining the Apni Party.

Estimates panel flags delay in R&B projects

Gurez review flags delay in UT Capex works despite approvals Panel raises concern over low bidding, seeks timely completion, accountability Srinagar, June 30: The Committee on Estimates of the Jammu and Kashmir Legislative Assembly has expressed serious concern over the slow pace and lackadaisical approach in the execution of development projects by the Roads & Buildings (R&B) Department across the Union Territory. Chairing a review meeting in Gurez, MLA Nazir Ahmad Khan (Gurezi) said several works sanctioned under the UT Capex Budget over the last two financial years have failed to progress with the required urgency, prompting concern from the Committee over delays in implementation. Legislators Ali Mohammad Dar, Javid Hassan Baig, Mushtaq Guroo, Irshad Rasool Kar, Sajad Shaheen, Sunil Bhardwaj besides Secretary JKLA Manoj Kumar Pandit, Secretary Law, Justice & Parliamentary Affairs Achal Sethi along with senior officers from Finance, PWD ( R&B) and PMGSY were present in the meeting. The Committee held detailed deliberations on the execution of development works sanctioned during the previous financial year. It also reviewed the status of various ongoing and pending projects across different districts and divisions, particularly those which have not been initiated despite the accord of Administrative Approval. Stressing the need for expeditious implementation, the Committee urged the departmental officers to accelerate the pace of work and ensure the completion of all ongoing projects within the shortest possible time so that the public is relieved of the inconvenience caused due to prolonged delays. The Committee also took serious note of the practice of awarding contracts at abnormally low rates, observing that such tenders often result in delays and non-completion of projects, thereby defeating the purpose of developmental initiatives. Emphasizing accountability and timely execution, the Committee directed the department to adopt appropriate measures to discourage non-serious contractors and ensure strict adherence to the prescribed timelines. It further called upon the department to strengthen the monitoring and enforcement mechanisms so that all sanctioned works are completed efficiently, maintaining the desired standards of quality and within the stipulated timeframe. The Committee reiterated its commitment to ensure transparency, accountability and the timely completion of public infrastructure projects in the larger interest of the people.
