No Beneficiary Received Free Gas Cylinder in J&K, Confirms Government

Srinagar, Oct 31, CNS: In a written reply to a question raised by MLA Pulwama, the Food, Civil Supplies, and Consumer Affairs Department has confirmed that no beneficiary in Jammu and Kashmir has received any free gas cylinder during the said period, despite earlier assurances made in the Budget announcements.

According to the official response signed by the Minister-in-Charge, “No free gas cylinder has been issued to any beneficiary in Jammu and Kashmir during the said period.” The clarification was tabled in the Assembly, effectively confirming that not a single district in the Union Territory has seen implementation of the promised scheme.

Reacting to the revelation, PDP legislator Wahid Parra said the government had promised free gas cylinders as part of its welfare commitments but had failed to deliver. “Zero beneficiaries of free gas cylinders in Jammu and Kashmir till now, despite the Budget promise. This is another reflection of hollow assurances and poor execution,” Parra remarked.

He said such lapses highlight the widening gap between official claims and ground reality, calling upon the administration to immediately review the scheme and ensure genuine delivery to deserving households. (CNS)

MLA Javid Mirchal Objects to Video Alleging Phone Use During Assembly Proceedings
Srinagar, Oct 31, CNS: MLA Javid Mirchal on Thursday raised strong objection in the Jammu and Kashmir Assembly over a video clip circulated online that allegedly showed him using Instagram during the House proceedings.

Mirchal dismissed the allegation as baseless and misleading, saying that such videos were aimed at defaming elected representatives. “It is unfortunate that fabricated clips are being circulated to malign legislators. This is not only unethical but also damages the sanctity of the House,” Mirchal said.

Several legislators extended their support to Mirchal and demanded that strict action be taken against those responsible for recording and circulating the video. They said the matter involved an attempt to distort facts and spread misinformation about Assembly conduct.

Speaker Abdul Rahim Rather assured the members that the issue would be examined thoroughly. “The matter will be looked into, and appropriate action will follow after verification of facts,” the Speaker said.

The House later resumed its business after the Speaker’s assurance. (CNS)

Former Naib Tehsildar, Patwari Sentenced to Four Years in ₹90,000 Bribery Case

Jammu, Oct 31, CNS: The Special Judge Anti-Corruption, Jammu, Haq Nawaz Zargar, has convicted former Naib Tehsildar Faryad Ahmed and then Patwari Yadav Chander, sentencing both to four years of rigorous imprisonment and a fine in a 2019 bribery case involving ₹90,000.

The case originated on April 16, 2019, when complainant Javed Ashraf approached the Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) Jammu alleging that the two revenue officials had demanded ₹90,000 as a bribe for issuing a Fard Intikhab of two marlas of land situated at Jhajjar Kotli along the Jammu-Srinagar National Highway.

Following the complaint, the ACB registered FIR No. 11/2019 under the J&K Prevention of Corruption Act and Section 120-B of the Ranbir Penal Code. Subsequently, a trap was laid in which both officials were caught red-handed while accepting the bribe amount.

After detailed proceedings and examination of witnesses, the court found the accused guilty and held that the prosecution had successfully established the demand and acceptance of the bribe. Both convicts were sentenced to four years of rigorous imprisonment and directed to pay a fine, the amount of which will be determined under the relevant provisions of the judgment.

The conviction has been hailed by anti-graft officials as a significant deterrent against corruption within the revenue department. (CNS)

*Waseem Baba*

Srinagar, Oct 30, CNS: Javid Mirchal, MLA Karnah, on Thursday urged the Jammu Kashmir Government to resume helicopter services for transporting dead bodies from snowbound areas, a practice he said has remained discontinued for the past eight to ten years.

Raising the issue during the Assembly session, Mirchal said the service had once provided vital assistance to families cut off during heavy snowfall. “I request the government to revisit the decision and restore helicopter services to snowbound areas, especially for carrying dead bodies during winters,” he said.

The legislator also expressed serious concern over the shortage of medical specialists in the Karnah region, highlighting a recent incident that underscored the healthcare crisis. “There is no gynaecologist in Karnah hospital. A woman expecting twins had to deliver one baby in Karnah and the other in Handwara due to the absence of a gynaecologist,” he said.

Mirchal appealed to the Health Department to immediately post qualified specialists in the far-flung border constituency, stressing that the people of Karnah should not be deprived of basic healthcare facilities during harsh winter months. (CNS)
