As reported already with an aim of creating hassle-free movement of army and other security force vehicles on Srinagar Jammu highway (NH 44) Govt as per sources took up Srinagar Ring Road construction work with Home Minister Amit Shah during his 2 day visit to Jammu & Kashmir.
As the frequent congestion of traffic from Awantipora to Baramulla has lead to chaos among commuters and security forces both, the same could have been reduced provided there was an alternate highway, but in-spite of tenders being invited and allotted for the said project (Srinagar Semi Ring Road) connecting Gallandar Pampore with Ganderbal via Chadoora, Budgam , Narbal, Sarai Dangarpora, the work on the project has not been taken up as there are issues related to land acquisition. The affected farmers are not ready to give land for this alternate highway as they allege of being given very less compensation by Government.
" Srinagar Ring road can be helpful not only to local commuters , but this will be of great help to security forces going to North Kashmir and Ladakh. The highway will he helpful to Amarnath Yatris as well because they would not have to cross Lasjan bypass via Nowgam , Bemina or Shalteng which are the most congested places that witness frequent traffic jams. The vehicles going to North Kashmir's Kupwara , Baramulla will also not get struck in traffic jams. Our only demand is fair compensation which is not given to us . We have now again brought the matter into BJP leadership who assured to take up the issue with Governor " said Ali Mohammad an affected farmers from Budgam. |
