EXPOSED: Shocking Reasons Behind Delay in IDTR Jammu Project Revealed! Click to Uncover the Truth Now!

by
Govt of J&K

In response to mounting concerns over the delay in the completion of the “Institute for Driving, Training and Research (IDTR Jammu)” project, the Government of Jammu and Kashmir has taken decisive action. Government Order No. 03-JK(TR) of 2024, dated February 13, 2024, has been issued to address the matter.

According to the order, Shri Imtiyaz Ahmad Wani, Director Finance, Transport Department, J&K, has been appointed as the “Inquiry Officer” to conduct a thorough investigation into the reasons behind the delay in completing the project. The investigation will focus on several key points outlined in the order:

  1. The approval and sanctioning process of the project by the Government of India’s Ministry of Road Transport & Highways.
  2. The disbursement of funds totaling Rs. 1014.90 lakhs by the Ministry of Roads and Highways (MORTH), GoI, during the financial year 2019-20.
  3. The current status of the project’s physical progress, which is reported to be significantly below expectations, resulting in cost and time overruns.

The Inquiry Officer is tasked with submitting a comprehensive report detailing the causes of the delay and providing specific recommendations to address the issues identified. The report is expected to be submitted to the Administrative Department within one month from the issuance of the Government Order.

To facilitate the inquiry process, S. Chand Singh, JKAS, Deputy Secretary to the Government, Transport Department, has been directed to assist the Inquiry Officer within the stipulated time frame.

This move underscores the government’s commitment to ensuring accountability and timely completion of crucial infrastructure projects, emphasizing the importance of efficient utilization of public funds and resources.

Inclement Weather Forces Closure of Srinagar-Jammu National Highway

by
Srinagar-Jammu National Highway

Amidst challenging weather conditions in Jammu and Kashmir, the authorities have taken the decision to close the Srinagar-Jammu National Highway for vehicular movement on Monday. This decision comes in response to the adverse effects of heavy rainfall in the region.

Traffic officials have reported incidents of mudslide at Mehad-Cafteria in Ramban and landslide at Tabela Chamalwass in Banihal, prompting the closure of the highway. These natural occurrences have been attributed to the relentless rains experienced in the Ramban district over the past 24 hours.

In light of the hazardous conditions, authorities are urging individuals to refrain from traveling on the highway until the weather conditions improve and clearance operations are completed. They have emphasized the importance of seeking updates from Traffic Control Units (TCU) before commencing any journeys.

Furthermore, it’s not just the Srinagar-Jammu National Highway that’s affected; other major highways in Jammu and Kashmir, such as Bhaderwah-Chamba, Kishtwar-Sinthan-Anantnag, Mughal Road, and Srinagar-Sonamarg-Gumri (SSG) Road, are also closed for vehicular movement due to significant snow accumulation.

The closure of these vital transportation arteries underscores the severity of the weather conditions and the need for caution among residents and travelers in the region. Authorities remain vigilant and are working diligently to ensure the safety and well-being of everyone affected by the inclement weather.
