SRINAGAR, Mar 11: Not a single guest from Pakistan-occupied Kashmir (PoK) arrived here today while two from the Kashmir valley travelled to other side in the Karva-e-Aman bus, operating between Srinagar and Muzaffarabad in Pakistan.
This is for the third time since January this year that no guest from PoK arrived here in the weekly bus service. Twice, on February 11 and 18, the bus service was suspended due to landslides at Chakoti on the other side of the Line of Control (LoC).
Official sources said that no guest arrived from PoK. Three residents of this side, who had crossed over to PoK, returned homes after meeting their relatives there, they added.
They said two male residents of the Kashmir valley travelled to other side in the bus while one resident of PoK, who was here, also left for his home today.
The bus service was started on April 7, 2005 to enable the families divided due partition to meet each other on travel permit instead of passport. Only those who have relations on either side could visit each other after approval from both India
