Srinagar, Nov 22: National Conference Member Parliament from Srinagar Syed Aga Ruhullah Mehdi Friday said that the government is doing its job wherever it has clear powers and that the reservation policy won’t be aimed to snatch somebody’s rights but to rationalise the policy.
“There is no clarity in the rules of business yet. The document has been sent to the LG office. As and when, there would be any response from the LG’s office, decisions would be taken accordingly. Things that are in the domain of elected government, are being taken seriously and decisions taken as well,” he said while talking to reporters after visiting the fire affected people of Abi Gurpora area of Dal lake in Srinagar as per news agency KINS.
He was accompanied by local MLA Tanvir Sadiq and NC MLA from Gulmarg Farooq Shah.
He said open merit needs to be rationalised. “This is what I wanted to convey through my tweet. I wanted to convey to those demanding rationalisation that if the government won’t take any decision on it, I will join them and accompany them in getting their demands addressed. I also told them that I will accompany them to Chief Minister Omar Abdullah and ensure that their demands are met forthwith by the government,” Mehdi said.
About the rehabilitation of fire affected people, Mehdi said that the government is trying its best to provide all possible support to 26 families whose houses were damaged in the blaze recently.
“Steps are being taken by the MLA concerned and the government to ensure all the affected people are rehabilitated before the snowfall or bad weather,” he said.
