The members raised the issue that due to stoppage of communications, the business sector supplying the good to Kashmir valley is suffering very badly as the traders have no contact with the buyers from Kashmir valley resulting payments of Crores of Rupees held up for the supplies made in the month of July and August 2019.
Deepak Gupta said that traders of Ware House-Nehru Market have been doing business with Kashmir Valley and other districts of Jammu division since 1952.

For the last one month, they have not received any payment, which has put an economic burden on them. Traders of Jammu have been unable to pay the companies.
In such a situation, the government should come forward to help the traders of Jammu, Gupta added. Gupta said that the traders of Jammu have always supported the government and whenever there was a crises, walked shoulder to shoulder with the government.
Now it is also the duty of the government to cooperate in releasing payments from Kashmir and other districts and till the internet services are fully restored in the state, the interest on Bank loans should be waived off so that they can get some relief.
