ARTISTS GIVEN WARNING TO VACATE GOVERNMENT-ACCOMMODATIONS – LEASE OF 6 KRISHNA MENON MARG
Bureau,Odishabarta
Artists given warning to vacate government-accommodations – Lease of 6 Krishna Menon Marg and 12-14-16 Gurudwara Rakab Ganj Marg (New Delhi) should also be cancelled.
DELHI:It refers to media-reports about final warning now given by central government to about 20 artists to vacate government-accommodations till 31.12.2020, who were initially allotted under earlier UPA regime for three years but subsequently extended again and again till the ear 2014 after which these artists had been unauthorisedly occupying prime government property in Leyton zone of New Delhi without any extension.
Present NDA government has been and rightly too very strict on unauthorized occupation of government accommodations. Earlier UPA government in its last days had allotted 6 Krishna Menon Marg to Babu Jagjiwanram Foundation and 12-14-16 Gurudwara Rakabganj Marg in New Delhi on long-term lease to indirect conversion in memorials of Babu Jagjiwanram and Manyavar Kashiram since otherwise these government-bungalows could not be converted into memorials according to a cabinet-note of the year 2000 passed in NDA regime of Atal Bihari Vajpayee government.
Central government should immediately cancel lease of 6 Krishna Menon Marg and 12-14-16 Gurudwara Rakabganj Marg in New Delhi to undo yet other wrong done in UPA regime.
