Ganderbal, Jun 24 (KNO): Daily commuters, particularly employees and students in Ganderbal’s main town are facing hard times due to frequent traffic jams.
A group of commuters comprising employees and students told the news agency—Kashmir News observer (KNO), that authorities have failed to regulate traffic in the main town Ganderbal particularly Nagbal to Beehama via Duderhama Chowk.
They said that in the absence of proper traffic regulation, vehicular movement frequently comes to standstill at the vital intersection on the Beehama Duderhama road.
Many people keep the vehicles parked on the roads, leading to chaos and frequent traffic jams while the authorities are watching as mute spectators.
Locals said even encroachers occupy footpaths leaving no space for the movement of pedestrians and the moving vehicles even on the main streets of the town thereby also resulting in massive traffic jam.
"Frequent unending traffic jams have drastically affected our lives and business. The worst affected are the government employees and students who reach late to the offices and respective destinations,” said a commuter, Sheikh Shahid—(KNO)
