Srinagar, Apr 25: Stressing the need of breaking nexus between politicians and bureaucrats to eradicate corruption, AIP leader and MLA Langate Er. Rasheed today said that most of the State and Central sponsored schemes have become like money making machines for a huge section of government employees.
According to party press release issued today, addressing public meetings at Waisa, Teerina , Bicherwara and Khaipora today, Er. Rasheed said “despite availability of funds in PHE, Public Works, Rural Development and other departments, common men is feeling deprived of basic immunities.
“While ministers are busy with finding unique ways to build their empires, officers and bureaucrats with their full patronage seem busy in looting the public money. If an honest investigation is carried out 60- 80 percent employees of engineering wings, Rural Development, Revenue and Social Welfare will find their place in jails,” Rasheed said.
He said the nexus between different ranks of administration works in a manner that common man just keeps on crying without being able to get his issues redressed.
Er. Rasheed appealed the State government employees and their bosses to re-fix their goals and ambitions and feel some sense of responsibility so that the State gets at least some governance.
“The frequent strikes, law and order problems and political instability can never be accepted as an excuse to not resolve day-to-day burning issues of common man. Government employees being part of the society should realize that by serving in far-flung areas and being busy with executing developmental works is not a favour to common masses, but they are all public servants and must never take common masses far-granted,” he said.
“It is high time for Kashmiris as a society to decide that if the huge majority takes a moral ground while seeking resolution to Kashmir dispute, what is the justification to loot public funds,” he asked.
