Bandipora, May 13: – The members of Civil Society and Citizens council Bandipora today staged protest demonstration at Bandipora against dilipitated condition of Srinagar-bandipora road.
Protesters where demanding immediate Macadamization of Bandipora-srinagar road which according to them is in dilapidated condition since decades.
The members shouted slogans against the authorities for failing to macadamize the road. “The condition of road has made life miserable as the road has developed holes forcing people to choose Sopore route to travel to Srinagar,” said Prof.Ismail Ashna, chairman, Civil Society Bandipora.
He said the successive governments have neglected Bandipora and have failed to macadamize Bandipora-srinagar road despite protests,representations and road blocks by people.
Ashna alleged that the authorities have started patch work which is not the solution as the road is in critical condition and needed to be macadamized as early as possible.
“If authorities will again fail to macadamize the road ,we will start mass agitation,” he warned.
The protesters appealed chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti to personally intervene into the matter and direct authorities to start work on the road as funds are already allotted.
