JAMMU: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) Jammu & Kashmir General Secretary and former Deputy Mayor Jammu, Baldev Singh Billawaria, visited Nai Basti Market in Ward No. 23 and interacted with members of the Market Association, shopkeepers, and local residents. During the visit, he listened in detail to the concerns raised by the public regarding basic amenities, pending development works, and issues related to custodian land.
Representatives of the Nai Basti Market Association strongly demanded the construction of a community bathroom in the market area. They stated that Nai Basti Market is a busy commercial hub where a large number of people from distant areas come for shopping. In the absence of public toilet facilities, shopkeepers, women, elderly citizens, and visitors face significant inconvenience, which also affects the image and functioning of the market.
Local residents also highlighted the issues concerning custodian land in the area. They pointed out that administrative hurdles related to land matters have delayed several development projects for a long time, thereby obstructing the overall progress of the locality. The residents further demanded the early completion of works related to roads, drainage, sanitation, and other essential civic amenities.
Taking serious note of the grievances, Baldev Singh Billawaria assured the public that all genuine demands would be addressed on priority. He stated that the issues of Nai Basti Market are real and directly linked to public welfare, and therefore require urgent attention. Referring to Prime Minister Narendra Modiâs Swachh Bharat Mission, he said that the Prime Minister has clearly emphasized that âcleanliness and basic amenities are the right of every citizen, and it is the responsibility of the government to ensure the strengthening of community toilets and sanitation infrastructure, especially in urban and densely populated areas.â
He further assured that the matters concerning the construction of a community bathroom, issues related to custodian land, and pending development works would be effectively taken up with the local MLA and the concerned departments to ensure their early resolution.
Billawaria reiterated that the primary objective of the Bharatiya Janata Party is to resolve the problems of the common people and ensure that development reaches the grassroots level. He emphasized that the BJP believes not merely in making promises but in delivering concrete results on the ground. He assured that every possible effort would be made for the comprehensive and balanced development of Nai Basti and the entire area.
During the visit, local residents thanked Baldev Singh Billawaria and expressed their hope that their concerns would be addressed promptly and that the area's basic infrastructure would be improved.
