Jammu, Jul 03: Is Tehsildar Bhalwal habitual to defy the directions of his seniors? Why does the Tehsildar Bhalwal ditch his senior officers by throwing their instructions in winds? Who will make him understand to respect the seniors? Why not the office of Deputy Commissioner Jammu taking strict action the tehsildar Bhalwal for violating its directions on several times? How can we impose the formula of good, prompt and people-friendly governance if such officers are still in the administration? Can Prime Minister Narender Modi put such officers on right track who do not bother for their superior officers? Will Lt Governor Manoj Sinha take strict action such officers who are habitual to defy the instructions of their senior officers? These are very serious issues which are agitating in the mind of everyone and everyone facing the consequences of the such casual performances of the officers.
The issue is that some people have approached the Divisional Commissioner Jammu that M/S Maha laxmi Brick Kilin Dayaran Kangrial and others have encroached the land falling under Khasra No 177 measuring 28 kanals 12 marlas situated at Kangrail including a water body land ‘Mufeed-e-Aam Chhapri’ and the same should be demarcated and vacated from the land grabbers who have grabbed the land.
The office of Divisional Commissioner Jammu has asked the office of Deputy Commissioner Jammu to take immediate action in this regard. The Divisional Commissioner office letter No 502/Misc/Jmu/22/299 dated 24-05-2022 says as ‘In this regard, I am directed to request you to kindly take appropriate action in the matter after getting the matter enquired by the Sub Divisional Magistrate Jammu North and an action taken report be furnished to this office.’ The letter was signed by Dr Pritam Lal JKAS Assistant Commissioner (Central) with Divisional Commissioner Jammu along with four pages.
The Additional Deputy Commissioner Jammu (Law & Order) Minga Sherpa IAS vide his office No DCJ/Comp-Div Com/2022-23/157 dated 09-06-2022 shot a letter to Sub Divisional Magistrate Jammu North with the direction to get the matter inquired within one week’s time positively.
The Sub Divisional Magistrate Jammu North without wasting the time referred the matter to Tehsildar Bhalwal vide his office No SDM/JN/Misc/22-23/356 dated 10-06-2022 and asked him to submit report within seven days. But now 24 days have passed the concerned Tehsildar has not bothered to consider the issue of land grabbing as an important issue and he not submitted an iota of report in this concern.
Now the issue is that who will work in place of Tehsildar Bhalwal as he hardly care for any officer let it be Deputy Commissioner Jammu or Divisional Commissoner Jammu.
