Udhampur, Dec 8: Villages Carkhoo, Chugal ,Keri , in Panchayet Ghordi Khass west in district Udhampur , remains untouched by development. Be it road connectivity, medicare or drinking water, the villagers have access to none.
Located hardly at a distance of 35 kms from district headquarters , there is no road connectivity which subjects the villagers to inconvenience.
The only source of water is a nullah, located near the village. Consumption of the untreated water from the nullah has led to outbreak of waterborne diseases. Moreover, adding to their woes is absence of health facilities; the villagers either depend on traditional medication or carry the patients to the nearest hospital on their own.
