Sources said most of the passenger sheds were occupied by Rehri walas to dump their goods there or being used by the locals for their uses while as department seems to be unmoved over the dilapidated condition of these sheds. In sub division Mendhar its Bus Stand has no passenger shed in use. Bus stand witnesses huge rush of passengers but they have no place to sit a while at any place. Females and old age people were worst sufferers as they find no place for resting when they come over the bus stands here. Similarly the passenger sheds constructed on Mendhar Surankote road at Ari and Mendhar- Mankote road at Chajjla are lying defunct. These sheds have been using local traders for keeping their goods etc for sale on the road side. It is Irony that department of Rural Development is unmoved despite taking Ada tax and other revenue over the issue to provide better facilities to passengers who have to wait for buses and other means of transport on road sides in hot and cold days but find no safe resting place, sources said. One daily commuter Shalda Kousar while talking to Early Times urged district authorities of Poonch to take cognizance of the issue and repair all the defunct passenger sheds in Mendhar and other sub Divisions of Poonch district she added.   Share This News with Your Friends on Social Network     Comment on this Story
