GNS ONLINE NEWS PORTAL 

JAMMU NOV 28:-Azad Democratic Party spokesperson Salman Nizami has strongly criticized the National Conference–led government over the demolition of senior journalist Arfaz Daing’s house by the Jammu Development Authority (JDA).

In a sharp Facebook post today, Nizami questioned how such an action could be taken without the knowledge or approval of the government, asserting that the JDA functions directly under the NC administration. He urged Chief Minister Omar Abdullah to take strict action against the Vice Chairman, JDA, holding him responsible for the incident.

Nizami termed the ongoing “blame game and excuses” as unacceptable, stating that if officers were acting without the consent of the government, accountability must be fixed at the highest level.

“If officers aren’t listening to the government, then for what are you holding the chair? Resign!” he wrote, calling the demolition unjust and demanding immediate corrective measures.

The incident has sparked political outrage across Jammu & Kashmir, with journalists and civil society members also demanding a transparent probe.
