Residents of Kupwara village face tough time due to dilapidated road

Kupwara, May 26: The residents of Yemlar, Rajwar area of north Kashmir’s Kupwara district have raised a strong voice against authorities for failing to macadamise their road, thus putting them into a lot of inconvenience.

The residents said that the 3 km road of their village which takes off from Zachaldara is dotted with potholes on multiple spots due to which commuters were suffering badly. The residents said that the condition of the road was severely pathetic but the concerned department was watching miseries of locals as mute spectators.

“We have brought this issue into the notice of the concerned department numerous times but every time we are being told that macadamisation of our road has been kept in plan but at the end of the year, a different tale emerges from the side of concerned officials,” a local told Greater Kashmir.

Meanwhile, District Development Council Member Rajwar Mir Sulaiman told Greater Kashmir that by the end of this year, Yemlar road will be macadamised. "Previous year, potholes of this road were filled and this year, the road will be macadamised," he added.
