A delegation of the Congress today called on Jammu and Kashmir Governor N N Vohra at the Raj Bhavan here to raise concern over the delimitation of Panchayat Wards in the state.
The members of the delegation expressed concern over the manner in which delimitation of Panchayat Wards is being carried out in the absence of an independent State Election Commission.
They demanded early establishment of an independent commission and mechanism for carrying out the delimitation process, a spokesman said.
The delegation also alleged that backdoor appointments were being illegally made in various government departments, and there was hike in price of atta and rice supplied through public distribution system.
They also highlighted "non-availability" of ration, sugar and kerosene oil as perthe prescribed scale, the spokesman said.
The delegation also raised with Governor the issue of inordinate delay in regularisation of daily wagers and casual workers, among other.
