JAMMU: Sunil Sharma, Senior BJP Leader and Leader of Opposition in the J&K Assembly, has said that rescue and relief operations in the tragedy-hit Chishoti, Padder, are being carried out on a war footing and every possible effort is being made to save lives and provide immediate support to the affected families.
Sunil Sharma said that even after nine long days of the devastating cloudburst, the pain and suffering of the people continue to shake every heart, but the relentless work on the ground gives hope. “The 17 Rashtriya Rifles, NDRF, J&K Police, VDGs, youth clubs, and NGOs like Sewa Bharti are working round the clock. Their commitment is unmatched, and the seriousness of the administration can be seen in every step being taken,” Sharma stated.
The senior BJP leader informed that many bodies have already been retrieved from under the debris, while searches for the missing continue despite the fear that some may have been washed away forever. “Not a single stone is being left unturned in the rescue operation. Teams are risking their lives in harsh conditions, and the entire machinery is focused on saving every life and recovering every soul,” he remarked.
Sharma further said that he is in constant communication with Hon’ble Union Home Minister Shri Amit Shah ji and the Hon’ble Lieutenant Governor Shri Manoj Sinha ji, who have assured full support for the rehabilitation of affected families. He said that besides financial assistance, the Hon’ble Lieutenant Governor has assured that all destroyed houses will be rebuilt through CSR support. “Even those who have lost their land will be given 5 marlas, ensuring that no family remains without a roof. Once the rescue operation concludes, the rehabilitation process will begin and shall be completed within fifteen days,” he conveyed.
The Leader of Opposition also stated that a cleanliness initiative was undertaken in the Chishoti area to prevent disease outbreaks. “Along with relief, our focus remains on safety and health. I have been with the affected families since the beginning, sharing their grief and standing with them in this hour of tragedy. My commitment is to ensure that every broken home is restored and every grieving family is supported with dignity,” he asserted. “We cannot fight against nature’s fury, but we can stand united, heal together, and rebuild with determination,” Sunil Sharma added.
