Pahalgam Golf Course and Free Tournaments

Pahalgam October 12,2017: Even as hundred crores of rupees have been spent on the land acquisition, construction, development and maintainence of the 18 hole Pahalgam GOLF COURSE so far,  there is no separate budget for the same and taxpayers' money spent on it is diverted away from other uses like washroom,lanes ,draines,pathes,  health etc. Also, since most tournaments and people who play here do not pay any fee, the golf course fails to generate any substantial income. We will however not allow anybody to misuse the resource as it is a public property and nobody's personal resource and we have moved an RTI application to find out who and when has come to play here, what fees they have paid and how much income is generated by the fascility, so that truth comes out clear.
