If the bus stand is shifted, all these people shall be deprived of their bread and butter”, they said.

They expressed surprise over the reluctance of the urban development ministry is reluctant in implementing decisions taken in the DDB meeting held under the chairmanship of former chief minister and former minister Jugal kishore sharma.

It is worth mentioning here that in the year 2-4-07, a meeting held in Katra with Azad in chair and another DDB meeting held at Reasi under the former Rural and Panchyat minister Jugal kishore decided to shift the police station and forest office from the bus stand.

The concerned were directed to hand over the vacated land to the local municipal committee to ensure smooth parking of vehicles. This was followed by massive correspondence between DDC Reasi and the municipal committee but nothing has moved till date.
