| Locals irked over bad condition of road near Nirdosh Chowk | | |  EARLY TIMES REPORT
JAMMU, Feb 20: Residents of Akhnoor tehsil of Jammu district are aggrieved over dilapidated condition of a road stretch in the heart of Akhnoor town, which is in deep shambles since long thus causing great inconvenience to the locals while the government seems to be in deep slumber.
The road stretch near Nirdosh Chowk is dotted with a ditch which causes huge inconvenience to the commuters. The administration has shown a lackadaisical attitude to repair this road to facilitate smooth vehicular movement. The road has developed a ditch due to the digging work done by the PHE Department to lay a water pipe; however, after the work was executed the road was never repaired. The ditch has made the journey in vehicles treacherous and risky especially for patients and pregnant women. Due to the pathetic condition of the road, students and employees face immense hardships to reach their respective destinations. This road not only links Rajouri and Poonch towns but also provides connectivity to a large number of people residing in several villages and hamlets adjoin Akhnoor. Several people of adjoining areas claimed that they had called on higher ups several times with a complaint but their requests met with deaf ears. According to a fruit seller, the passenger vehicles too have suffered damages due to the bad condition of the road. “Our vehicles have suffered heavy damages due to the dilapidated condition of the road,” a taxi driver said. People appealed to the Lieutenant Governor of the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir to ensure immediate repair of this road and investigate the reasons for no blacktop on it till date. |
