Early Times Report

Doda, Apr 16: Hundreds of villagers hailing from Bidwan, Chata, Hanch, Zehand, Dhara and Posta besides relatives of accident victims in Bidwan road accident, held protest against the Government, District Administration and Traffic authorities for failing to provide more SRTC bus service on Doda Dhara Gundna road.
The protestors demanded a new fleet of the State Road Transport Corporation (SRTC) in the region as private buses plying on various routes in the district particularly on Doda Gundna road are not in a good condition and they alleged that vehicles plying on this road are out dated and drivers are mostly using kerosene oil instead of petrol.
Pertinent to mention here that on April 10, six people lost their precious lives and 50 others injured seriously in a road accident in Bidwan village on Doda District. Protesters demanded better bus service to their villages to prevent any such event in future. One of the protestors Saleen Malik said the roads are in a bad condition and despite repeated complaints, the authorities have done nothing so far. The protest continued for about 06 hours in Doda town outside DC Office which disrupt movement of traffic.
The protestors appealed the Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti, MoS Transport Sunil Sharma, DC Doda and other concerned authorities to look in to this grave problem personally and recommend early services of SRTC Buses on Doda District link routes to avert any more loss to the human lives.
