Water logging irks people in Jammu | | | Early Times Report
Jammu, Mar 17 : Accumulation of water on the roads has become a major problem for the tourists and passenger vehicles, as the authorities have turned a blind eye towards the issue. A large number of tourists visit daily but due to closed Jammu National highway, long queues of tourist vehicles standard at JDA parking, Maharaja Ghulab Singh road Jammu could be seen and poor sanitation only adds to their woes. Two days of continuous rainfall caused water logging of various places in the city putting people to inconvenience. This has exposed district administration's lack of preparedness for unseasonal rain in the city. "Ponds have appeared everywhere in the city. The authorities concerned have virtually failed to perform their duties accordingly, a driver Shabir Ahmed of Srinagar said adding they have to fold their trousers to come out of the vehicles. Vehicles in the center were seen struggling through the muddy water while pedestrians were seen finding a brick here and there to cross the roads. Water-logged exposed how government-at even the basic level-was responding to such situations. |
