The most affected places in the town where encroachment of streets, roads is rampant are main bazaar Karta, Ban Ganga road, Kashmir Road and Jammu road but the Municipal Committee Katra, district administration are least bothered to get rid of this menace.

They further informed that illegal reharies are running in the town in clear violation of Municipal Act under the nose of the local administration which is fully responsible for creating this mess. Despite repeated attempt to DDC Reasi telephonically was not available.
