Irshad Hussain
Scores of residents of Mir Behri Dal, Srinagar hit the streets and blocked the Kashmir University road, demanding the long pending 3 kilometer road macadamization and renovation of broken bridges in the area.
Prominent social activist, Mohd Abass Kashmiri, told The Kashmiriyat that due to dilapidated conditions of bridges and roads, “we carry patients in boats, which is troublesome.”
The residents alleged that even during the month of Muharram, nothing was done about these broken bridges and roads which caused massive problems to the mourners.
Adding that, Srinagar mayor Junaid Matoo was the counselor of the area and that he had promised many a times that he would solve these problems, the residents said that nothing of this sort was done and the situation remained the same.
” At least 20 thousand people from Mir Bahri Dal, Srinagar have to venture out in the main city of Rainawari and it’s adjacent areas, ” Abass said.
The locals of the area have appealed that the administration intervenes and fulfills their long standing demands.
