Jammu November 18 : A delegation of account holders of The Co-operative Agriculture and Rural Development Bank Ltd., Srinagar/Jammu met BJP State Vice President Rajeev Charak at the BJP Headquarters, Trikuta Nagar, Jammu. The delegation apprised him of the serious hardships they are facing due to the non-release of their deposited money by the bank.
The members of the delegation informed that the prolonged restrictions on withdrawals have pushed hundreds of account holders into severe financial distress. Many families, especially those with upcoming marriages of their daughters or those needing funds for reconstruction of houses damaged during the recent rains, are facing immense difficulties as they are unable to access their own hard-earned savings.
Speaking to the delegation, BJP leader Rajeev Charak strongly criticized the present administration for its negligence and financial mismanagement. He said that the failure of the Finance Minister Javed Rana has resulted in common farmers and rural families suffering unnecessarily. He further stated โOur honourable MLAs have raised this critical issue in the Legislative Assembly as well, yet it is unfortunate that the Omar-led government has failed to resolve this matter till date. Even after repeated appeals, the government has not taken concrete action, which reflects sheer insensitivity towards the plight of the public.โ
Rajeev Charak urged the government to immediately intervene and ensure the release of pending deposits so that account holders receive timely relief. He assured the delegation that the BJP stands firmly with the affected individuals and will continue to raise their concerns at every appropriate platform until justice is delivered.
