Nobody raised their bows when Chotay Lal Prasad, the
president of Parvathya Apang Kalyan Sangathan (PAKS) threatened to
collect rations and cloths from PAKS and give it to the Block
Development Officer-block 1 on 19th May after sticking the walls with posters in Thana Dara.
Today
the president along with few other handicapped people visited SDO
office to submit a memorandum, written against the block officer.
‘We
have sent a memorandum to the District magistrate through SDO which is
against Bimalindu Das, we have written that he should be removed from
the hills immediately’ said Prasad adding that the disabled have been
frequently underestimated by the officer.
The
president further said that they expect to be understood by the (any)
officers for their disability and have demanded for a better officer who
can support disadvantaged people. PAKS have also notified the DM about
the thorough probe of the GR dealer who defrauds with the beneficiaries
of the handicaps.
Prasad also complains that the BDO sits mum despite the frequent request of an investigation in the GR shops.
However the posters stuck on the areal route on 19th last
month accurately read ‘if the BDO cannot distribute relief and rations
meant for us, we will collect rations from ourselves and give it to
him.’ These words will certainly draw a solution for the members of
PAKS.
Speaking
to this reporter on the same context, Prasad said that they have
scheduled a small event where the BDO will be invited to receive rations
and cloths collected from the members of Parvathya Apang Kalyan
Sangathan on Friday (this week).
The
SDO was coincidentally not available to listen to their complain and
Julfigar Ali, the Deputy Magistrate took care of the matter and assured
them to put the same to the notice of the higher authority.
