MP busy, villagers have to wait
Publish Date : 1/13/2005 9:45:00 AM   Source : Onlypunjab.com Team

Thousands of residents from nearly 65 villages falling in Sultanpur Lodhi subdivision, who had been looking forward to a “Suwidha camp” to get their grievances redressed with the administrative authorities, are a harried lot as the camp was postponed for the second consecutive day today.

The camp was earlier scheduled to be held at Kabirpur village, nearly 45 km away from the city, yesterday but it was postponed for today. Villagers were once again told early this morning that the camp would be held after four or five days as an MP, Rana Gurjit Singh, who was to visit the camp, was busy.

This was to be the third camp of its kind where villagers were told to come up with their problems pertaining to as many as 22 departments and boards, including the PSEB, the Red Cross Society, the Welfare Department, Police, the Employment Board, Transport and Animal Welfare.

Villagers said tents for the camp had been pitched in the grain market since January 9. The preparations were on to hold the camp on January 12 but it was postponed for the next day. They said employees from the PSEB and the Employment Exchange had come again yesterday to make preparations for today but since it was again postponed, they had to take their material back.

The villagers said they were informed by their sarpanches that the camp had been postponed and it would be held after sometime. Interestingly, the confusion about the exact date of the camp still continues as residents of Kabirpur village said that the camp would be held on January 17 while those in the adjoining Bussowal village said that it would be held on January 18.

Ms Baljit Kaur of Kabirpur village said she was amazed with the sudden twist in the attitude of the MP towards the problems of the village.

Mr Gian Singh, also from the same village, said they had been assured that a bridge in the village that had partly broken would be reconstructed, but to no avail. He said he wanted to take up various long-pending issues of the village such as those of a 25-bed hospital that was to come up, poor condition, of hospital, understaffed veterinary hospital and contaminated water supply.

Rana Gurjit Singh said his programme had been cancelled owing to the personal engagement of the SSP, Mr Arun Pal Singh, who was to celebrate the first Lohri of his son. He said the programme had now been rescheduled for January 18.
