Pak a failed state, continuously trying to disturb peace: L-G Sinha
Asserting that Pakistan is a “failed state”, Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha on Thursday said it continuously tries to disturb peace and normalcy in Jammu and Kashmir by sending terrorists to the Union Territory.
Speaking at the inauguration of a week-long mega surgical camp at Doda and Kishtwar, Sinha said, “Our neighbouring country is making desperate attempts to disrupt peace. Security forces, J&K Police, and administration are working together to combat terrorism and its supporters. We will not rest until we completely wipe out terrorism and its entire ecosystem from the Union Territory.”
“‘Don’t touch the innocent and don’t spare the culprit’ is our policy. Every section of the society must join this fight against terrorism,” he asserted.
On the occasion, the Lieutenant Governor urged the people to identify, isolate and report divisive elements threatening peace and harmony.
Later, addressing the gathering at the government hospital at Bhaderwah, the L-G said, “Health for all is our top priority and the J&K administration in the past few years has ensured that everyone has access to effective and quality health services. We have improved physical infrastructure and invested in essential services for timely and appropriate healthcare”.
“There is a single resolve behind improvement in physical facilities — to provide better protection to the people during health emergencies and to ensure healthy living and well-being for people of all age groups,” said Sinha.
“The entire health system has been sensitized in the last five years to ensure essential healthcare and develop infrastructure for non-communicable diseases like mental health and psychosocial support in every district. We have been diligently working on key areas such as ensuring availability of doctors, access to affordable drugs, enhancing diagnostics, and improving delivery mechanisms,” the L-G added.
He directed the district administration to create a database of divyangjan to ensure eligible individuals can benefit from upcoming mega camps to be organised in both Jammu and Kashmir divisions.
