Aggrieved over dilapidated condition of Reasi-Katra road, locals of Bhaga and adjoining areas in occupied Jammu and Kashmir held a protest demonstration demanding its immediate black-topping.
According to Kashmir Media Service, the di-lapidated condition of the road, which is the main road leading to Shiv Khori Shrine and Reasi, is causing immense hardships to the commuters and pedestrians as the authorities have not macadamized this road since years.
The protesting people held a strong demonstration and disrupted vehicular traffic as they blocked the road, much to the inconvenience of the commuters and Shiv Khori going pilgrims. The protesters were demanding macadamization of the road.
One of the protesters said the road is in dilapi-dated condition, as a result of which people and local shopkeepers face a lot of inconvenience. He said that the authorities were in deep slumber and ignoring this prime road.
The protesters claimed that several other roads were macadamized in the district but this main road was still in a very bad condition and dotted with huge potholes and bumps due to which commuters face tremendous inconvenience.—KMS
