| Bhagwah accident opens Pandora box again, Govt fails to save precious lives | | | Early Times Report
JAMMU, June 16: The matador accident in Bhagwah Doda, in which two people were killed and several got seriously injured, has again opened up the Pandora box of safety of people in twin districts of Doda and Kishtwar.
This accident has frightened the entire area as mostly those people have got injured or killed who leave early morning to attend their offices. Teachers and other staff were on their way from Doda town to other places to attend their offices and schools but accident cost them their lives.
Traffic police officials and police personnel haven't learnt from the previous mistakes as accident happen on regular basis in this hilly Chenab valley belt. These traffic officials and police personnel are given target to collect particular amount as revenue from vehicles. "We are being pressed hard that we have to collect some thousand rupees on monthly basis. If we fail, we are being punished," said a police officer. He said that regular police personnel have a little amount to collect but traffic police authorities have to collect much bigger amount. "Instead of focusing on the streamlining the traffic and decrease the accidents, police and traffic official are busy in collecting revenue," he added. Thousands of people of Doda and Kishtwar districts have got killed in road accidents as some say that number is higher than that of militancy related incidents but neither government nor police officers wake up from deep slumber.
"We are being victimized on each and every level and there is no security of life for common man in entire Chenab valley belt," said a relative of one of the injured in accident, adding, " Where should we go and call for attention." |
