FIR Filed Against Anantnag MLA's Wife and Son for Locking Government Health Centre

Jammu and Kashmir Police registered an FIR against the wife and son of Anantnag MLA Peerzada Mohammad Syed for allegedly locking a government-run primary health centre in Damhal Khosipora, Anantnag district. The building, provided by the MLA's family in 2008 for the health facility, is claimed by the family to be privately owned and in dilapidated condition. Despite administrative efforts to reopen the centre, including breaking the lock, the dispute remains unresolved amid concerns from residents and officials.
