Srinagar, Jan 20 (KNS): Though the authorities failed to clear snow on roads, the inhabitants including patients in Karnah village of north Kashmir’s Kupwara district were left to face hardships.
According to KNS correspondent Peerzada Sayeed, inhabitants said that the authorities here have failed to press men and machinery to clear the accumulated snow on roads thereby leaving the people to lurch at large.
Alleging that the Beacon machines are lying defunct, the residents said the authorities are ignoring their plights with taking no action in this regard. “We have been left to face hardships due to the closure of Karnah-Kupwara road,” they said.Click Here To Follow Our WhatsApp Channel
The inhabitants demanded immediate redressal of their genuine grievances.
They said that the traffic is off the roads from past couple of days as the snow is accumulated on roads here and the authorities are acting as mute spectator.
Inhabitants told KNS that the authorities had promised a few days back that the road will be reopened after some hours but unfortunately all in vain.
The inhabitants later appealed authorities concerned to look into the matter and redress their genuine grievances at earliest.
Meanwhile the SDM Karnah told KNS that they are working on war footing to provide relief and make road functional. (KNS)
