Former Member of Indian Parliament and member of Congress Working Committee, Tariq Hameed Karra has said that halting thousands of fruit-laden trucks on Srinagar-Jammu highway is an insensitive act and administrative failure.
“The failure of Jammu and Kashmir administration to manage and facilitate clearance of around 8000 fruit laden trucks stranded at Qazigund and around on Srinagar Jammu National Highway, is a sheer insensitiveness,” he said.
He also said it is unfortunate from many past days that fruit-laden trucks have been stopped on highway which is causing huge loss to the apple industry and thereby resulting also loss of livelihood of thousands of people who are associated with fruit industry. The Modi government must prioritize movement of trucks, he added.—KMS
