Srinagar, Apr 06: Apni Party President Syed Mohammad Altaf Bukhari Saturday called upon the administration to ensure all necessary arrangements are in place for the upcoming auspicious occasion of Eid-ul-Fitr.
In a statement, Bukhari said, “I urge the administration to ensure all necessary arrangements, including adequate availability of essential commodities in the markets, and uninterrupted water and power supply to consumers, for the occasion of Eid-ul-Fitr.”
“The administration must remain vigilant to ensure that essential commodities such as ration, mutton, chicken, vegetables, fruits, bakery products, LPG, etc., remain available in adequate quantities in the markets,” he added.
Bukhari also urged the concerned departments to ensure arrangements for sanitation facilities, especially at the places where congregational prayers are to be held. He also emphasized facilitating hassle-free transport service for the people on auspicious occasion.
Furthermore, he emphasized the need for conducting market inspections during these days.
“There should not be any complaints about hoarding, black-marketing, and profiteering in the markets. Shopkeepers and traders found failing to maintain the quality of food items, selling expired products, or not displaying rate lists of essential commodities should be dealt with according to the law. Also, the administration, particularly key department officials, should be accessible to the public in case they have any complaints to bring to the notice of these officials,” he said.
