DPAP castigate government for doubling toll plaza rates at Nashri

Jammu, Dec 28 : Democratic Progressive Azad Party ( DPAP) today castigated the move of government for increasing the toll at Nashri- Mada plaza for all vehicles and termed the move as anti people.

In a Joint statement party senior leaders G M Saroori, R SChib, Jugal Kishore Sharma, Arvinder Singh Micky, and Salman Nizami said that the move has come as a shock since the fee has been doubled.

They said it is impossible for most of the people to afford this huge amount while traveling on this road. Chief Spokesperson Salman Nizami, said that the people of J&K need a healing touch and support from centre since the Union Territory has the highest number of unemployed youths. “The local businesses also have little opportunities to grow and amid such situations levying such huge taxes from the common people is unjustified,”he said. DPAP leaders urged government to reconsider its decision and treat the people of Jammu and Kashmir at par with people from other states. “ Our people too deserve concessions and support from government like BJP do in other states it rule. There can’t be a different yardstick for the people of J&K,” Nizami said.
