SRINAGAR: Jammu and Kashmir’s Lieutenant Governor Sunday said that the provisions set in Indian Constitution allow the UT administration to go tough against those who pose a threat to national integrity and those who have supported terrorism, its eco-system and “enjoyed government jobs through illegal means.”
Speaking during the launch of the Green Jammu and Kashmir Driver 2023-34 initiative at IIM Jammu, LG Sinha said that it doesn’t matter who says what as there is a provision in Indian Constitution kept by its architects like B R Ambedkar and others that says, “Go tough, rather hard against those who pose threat to State/nation’s integrity and sovereignty.”
His statement comes a day after J&K Bank sacked its Chief Manager Sajad Bazaz on the pretext of receiving “credible reports against him from the agencies.” “Anyone who has supported terror and its eco-system will have to face the music,” he said.
The LG while replying to a query said that Kashmir was in prime focus of terrorism for a long time. “Security agencies adopted a 360-degree approach in Kashmir to root out terrorism. Now the same approach is being followed in the Jammu region. We have achieved some success in Jammu and more is expected soon,” he said when asked two terrorists who were killed in recent encounters, who are believed to be involved in Dhangri killings and an attack on an army convoy.
About the installation of smart meters and protests by people, the LG said the administration will take no decision against people’s interests. “But at the same time, it’s a fact that in the last few years, Rs 20,000 Cr worth of power was purchased by J&K administration. Those rich should pay the power bills while the government will take decision for the poor at the right time,” the LG said—(KNO)
