KISHTWAR: Leader of the Opposition (LoP) Sunil Sharma today visited the far off Margi village in the Warwan area which suffered severe devastation due to the recent incessant rains and flash floods.
The natural calamity has caused widespread damage, washing away several houses and extensively damaging the road connectivity, cutting off the entire population from the rest of the district. Many families have been left homeless, and the region is currently grappling with acute shortages of shelter, food, drinking water, medicines, and basic amenities.
Sunil Sharma was accompanied by officials of local administration and civil society members. Despite difficult terrain and disrupted routes, he reached Margi to meet with affected families and to have a firsthand assessment of the extent of destruction. He interacted with the affected people, listened to their grievances, and took stock of the ground situation.
Sunil said that the scale of destruction is heartbreaking. He expressed his pain that many families have lost everything
He assured the villagers that he would raise the matter at the highest levels and press the administration for immediate relief and rehabilitation measures. Relief must reach to the people at the earliest, he said and added that temporary shelters, emergency food supplies, medicines, and restoration of road links must be treated as top priority.
Sunil Sharma called upon the Union Territory administration and disaster management authorities to deploy emergency teams, including medical staff and engineers, to the area on an urgent basis. He also appealed to NGOs and civil society to come forward and support the people of Warwan in this critical time. He assured the residents of Margi and adjoining areas that they would not be left alone in this hour of crisis and that he would continue to monitor the relief efforts closely.
Sunil Sharma batted for a long-term plan to strengthen infrastructure in remote regions like Warwan, which remain especially vulnerable during extreme weather events. Our remote areas need better preparedness, not just sympathy after disaster strikes, he emphasized.
