Todays meeting at civil Secretariat Jammu. The meeting was 199% in our favour. Some hidden facts came to surface today. It was so astonishing and hurting too that JKB doesnt want too transfer the Electricity bill collection service to us on one or the other false excuse. The Bank raised the non technical hindrances like RBI, SECURITY, Finacle Access etc. Principal Secretary PDD was otherwise ready with the formal order from Govt side. The meeting lasted for almost 2 hours. We argued in favour of our genuine demands and JKB was the only resisting party among many. Dear friends we will have to meet again and decide seriously this time for the sake of our future and for the sake of NeGP.
