| Congress protests against establishment of toll plaza | | |  Early Times Report
Vijaypur, Oct 4: Workers of Congress Party lead by Babal Samba Vice President/Ex-councilor have protested in the front of S.D.M. Office, Vijaypur regarding the installation of Toll Plaza at Sarore in District Samba and handed over the memorandum to Governor through S.D.M. Vijaypur.
While interacting with the media persons Babal Gupta criticized the Transport Minister of Union Government of India regarding the issuance of contract of toll plaza without adopting the due course of procedure laid down for Toll Plaza.
He said that in the year 2013-14, the toll plaza was to be installed at Sarore Adda and the then BJP local leaders and workers had opposed the same and now they are mum due to the reason BJP Govt. in centre and J&K UT is under Governor Rule. A few months ago there was a rumor that toll plaza is to be constructed at Thandi Khui NH1 but now the construction work of toll plaza is in progress between Patli Morh and Sarore Adda on NH1. He asked from NH1 authority, whether there is provision that toll plaza can be installed at any place on NH1. Ruthlessly, he said that yet the NH1 is not completed and the NH authority is not providing services as per norms. He further told that Samba to Jammu is dense traffic area and due to the huge traffic it becomes the accidental and jam prone area.
The NH1 authority has not taken the preventive steps regarding this concern, the NH1 authority has not installed the equipments which may help to enforce the traffic rules and the violator be punished. Many accidental prone places are yet without sign/cautions symbols. He said the people are not against the traffic rules and ready to pay the tax but the place which has been proposed is fall within area of high dense traffic area and it will become the jam prone area.
It is pertinent to mention here that a toll plaza in Kathua District is already in function which is about 50 Km from the proposed place which is glaring injustice with the people of Jammu region. Otherwise the workers of congress party shall be compelled to launch agitation at large and the NH1 Authority as well as Government shall be responsible of all risk and loss.
