AJYWO condemns the Govt. on the re-shifting Wapung C & RD Block in EJH District

Khliehriat January 15: The AJYWO Central Body condemns the Government for playing with the people of Wapung area,  particularly the two Dorbar Shnongs-Wapungskur and Wapungshnong East Jaintia Hills by laying a foundation stone of the so called  Wapung C & RD Block in the grand and impressive Foundation Stone Laying Ceremony organised at Wapungskur Village on the 22nd April 2017 that incurred almost 1.5 lakhs of public’s money, where hundreds of people and high Government’s dignitaries were present and witnessed the said big achievement of the Govt for the region.

“The AJYWO is painful to learn the said incident happened to the two Dorbar Shnongs and its surrounding Villages. Even the Work Order of lakhs of rupees had been issued recently by the Govt. to the VEC, Wapungskur for the construction work of the said temporary office building at Wapungskur and lakhs of rupees till date had been invested by the said Dorbar Shnong on the said construction process. Now, who compensate the huge loss incurred by the said poor Dorbar Shnong for the said construction work?” asked Bah Dkhar.

“It is very unfortunate that the two Dorbar Shnongs both toiled so hard for 4 years long in helping the Government in finding the most feasible land at Wapungskur for the construction of said office. With the hard work of both the Dorbar Shnongs, at last a beautiful land for the said purpose was identified and the same was generously gifted to the Govt. free of cost, although it was a land not traditionally inherited by the said Dorbar Shnongs but a land bought lakhs of rupees from land-owner(s) but still both the Dorbar Shnongs sacrificed the said only beautiful land they have in the interest of general public,” added Dkhar.

“In fact the Dorbar Shnongs both fully co-operated with the Govt.  right from the beginning and until now, which is the construction stage of the said office but sadly enough, the said 8 months old C & RD Block was surprisingly taken away from the said Dorbar Shnongs and the people of the area to Lumshnong area on the 9th January, 2018 with reasons best known to the Govt.”, said M.H Dkhar President AJYWO Central Body.

Dkhar said, “If the Govt. is really interested in bringing development to the people of the region, they should have given the Lumshnong area a new C & RD Block instead of taking away the said young Wapung C & RD Block away from Wapung area to Lumshnong”.  Bah Dkhar added.

 

“If this is the policy of the Govt. in bringing the development to the people, how would the people trust the Govt. when today it gives but tomorrow it will take back the same. We strongly oppose this kind of a policy of the Govt. in availing development infrastructure towards the people. This is intolerable and condemnable. Now, with this incident, the Govt.  itself has taught the people of the region a big lesson, a lesson never to be forgotten for generations. A lesson that even a child could grasp so easily, who is right and who is wrong” Dkhar added.

Dkhar also said, “This seems to be the politics games of some vested groups in taking advantage of the majority backward and ignorant residents of the region for this upcoming General Election in the state to garner more votes by transferring the said particular C & RD Block from one place to the other”.

“The AJYWO is not against the availing the people of Lumshnong area a C&RD Block. Yes it is a high time for them to get one too but the organisation is against the policy of the government in availing a developmental infrastructure to the people of the region as what had happened to the poor Wapung area.  Govt. please do not play with the people of Lumshnong area as you did with the people of Wapung area. We demand from the Govt. Wapung C&RD Block be restored to its orginal position and a new C & RD Block be curved up for the Lumshnong are.”  Mr. Dkhar concluded.
