Darbar schedule or roster of picnic trips of bureaucrats in Kashmir

Under the garb of COVID-19 pandemic spread, the Jammu & Kashmir Government placed directly under the command and control of the central government after the bifurcation of erstwhile state into two union territories in October last year is all set to issue a duty roster for the occasional trips of top bureaucrats to Kashmir as part of partial darbar move engagements replacing a full fledged darbar move this year. While the top non Kashmiri bureaucrats would be at the liberty to propose the timing and schedule of their visits to valley during the hot summer months, the administration mostly run by the administrative secretaries won’t find time to embark on any public contact program within or outside the secretariat in Srinagar and also not even at the district headquarters of valley. In the end the exercise of the frequent shuttling of administrative secretaries and directors of move offices would become a very good calendar for their picnic trips during hot summer months in Kashmir. As the attention of the administrative top brass totally focused on Jammu since last nine months and more so after the COVID-19 breakout has already intensified the increasing alienation in Kashmir, the duty roster for administrative secretaries and directors having the administrative jurisdiction over the whole Jammu & Kashmir would be coming to Srinagar just for marking their attendance at the secretariat , disposing off matters of trivial local importance, and proceeding to tourist hot spots like Gulmarg, Pahalgam , Sonmarg for weekend picnics before flying back to Jammu. Consequently the new darbar move arrangement would by all standards of understandabilities force the people of Kashmir to travel to Jammu even during hot summer months for quick disposal of the their cases of key importance.

Access to Jammu people and inaccessibility to gullible Kashmir’s would by all standards of understandabilities become the new norm of discrimination in Jammu and Kashmir. Critics saying that India can’t afford to bear the huge expenses on the shuttling of government offices between Srinagar and Jammu and Jammu and Srinagar twice a year must draw financial comparison between full fledged shuttling of move offices twice a year as per past precedence and frequent shuttling of top bureaucrats between Jammu and Srinagar and back to Jammu as per duty roster of new darbar move arrangement. Such critics would as per their own calculations come to know that frequent shuttling of top bureaucrats between Jammu and Srinagar and back to Jammu as per duty roster of new darbar move arrangement would put more burden on the annual budget than the conventional full fledged Darbar move. Critics who have no knowledge of the complications of the public conveniences and regional balancing in the working of the Jammu & Kashmir Government must not deliver sermons on decades old practice of darbar move and instead try to understand the implications of a new controversial darbar move arrangement over the future of responsive administration in Jammu & Kashmir .
