JAMMU, July 2: A delegation of Chamber of Commerce & Industry (CCI), Jammu led by its president Arun Gupta today called on Manoj Sinha, Lt Governor of JKUT and discussed with him various issues related to trade and industry besides others.
During the meeting, Arun Gupta introduced the newly elected team of office bearers to the Lt Governor. He pointed out that the number of Amarnath Yatris is increasing day by day and the administration is taking every possible step to ensure safe and peaceful Yatra but still there is urgent need to increase the token counters for facilitating the Amarnath yatris.
Besides this, there is urgent need to enhance the security arrangements as this year’s Amarnath Yatra marks the first major religious event in J&K since the devastating Pahalgam terror attack and subsequent Operation Sindoor.
Arun Gupta requested the LG to take up the issue relating to extension of industrial Package of Rs 28400 crores with the Union Government so that the Industrial units who have applied well within time, can get the benefit of this industrial package.
Chamber chief further requested Sinha to take up the issue regarding starting of a new train between Jammu-Haridwar and vice versa on daily basis with the Union Railway Ministry. He pointed out that the present regular train between Jammu and Haridwar has been started some 23 years ago and since then no other train has been added on this route and the number of passengers is increasing day by day as the people are frequently visiting Haridwar to perform religious rituals including `Asthi Visarjan’ of their dear ones.
Manoj Sinha gave patient hearing and assured to resolve the issues discussed in the meeting at the earliest.
