Chairman and Chief Executive Councillor (CEC), LAHDC Kargil, Dr. Mohd.

The ceremony was attended by Executive Engineer R&B SVD Sankoo; Councillor Aga Syed Ahmad Razvi; Chief Patron of Anjuman-e-Sahib Zaman, Syed Mohmad Razvi (Al-Maroof Migh-e-Oud); former MLA Syed Baqir Razvi; Chairman Anjuman-e-Sahib Zaman Sheikh Sadiq Balagi; Sheikh Muslim; Sheikh Ali Mangdum; former Executive Councillor Syed Abass Razvi; and a large gathering of local residents, who warmly welcomed the initiatives aimed at improving facilities in their area.

As part of the day’s proceedings, the CEC laid the foundation stone for a Community Hall/Reading Hall at Goma Sangrah. He also inaugurated the foundation works for the upgradation and construction of the 1st and 2nd floors of the Community Hall at Bansala Sangrah.

Addressing the gathering, Dr. Jaffer Akhoon said these projects represent a milestone achievement in the developmental journey of Sangrah village. He affirmed LAHDC Kargil’s commitment to providing quality infrastructure, modern facilities, and better opportunities even in the remotest villages of the region.

Highlighting the educational impact, the CEC noted that the new reading hall and library will be especially beneficial for students from economically weaker backgrounds. Equipped with computers, books, internet connectivity, and dedicated study spaces, students will have access to world-class educational resources.
