Langate, Dec 28 (KNS): Volunteers of three villages in Langate constituency of Handwara area of north Kashmir’s Kupwara district came out to reappear the damaged water pipes after PHE ground staff turned a deaf ear to their repeated pleas for reappearing the water pipes which bursted due to negligence of PHE employees.
A legion of complainants told KNS that water pipes in Shahnagri, Khudi, and Hydermali in Langate constituency bursted as the water pipes were not found properly connected.
