| Rana seeks toll exemption during Amarnath Yatra in Jammu region | | | Early Times Report
JAMMU, June 25: National Conference Provincial President Devender Singh Rana on Tuesday sought exemption of toll tax during the upcoming Shri Amarnathji Yatra in the Jammu region also.
"There seems no justification for levying toll tax at various toll posts from Lakhanpur to the base camps of Baltal and Pahalgam while exempting at a particular Toll Plaza", Mr Rana said in a statement, adding that the pilgrims thronging from various parts of the country are required to pass several toll posts before entering into the Valley.
He said instead of taking a lopsided decision the overall scenario should have been taken into consideration before ordering the exemption.
The Provincial President hoped that the administration will take a call on this important issue earnestly, as the yatra is beginning from July 1. This, he said, will go a long way in streamlining traffic by cutting huge jams at various toll collection centres besides providing respite to the travelling public.
"To begin with, we urge Governor Mr Satya Pal Malik, who is also Chairman of the Boards managing Shri Amarnathji and Shri Mata Vaishno Deviji Yatras, to pass on instructions for toll exemption during the upcoming yatra in the Jammu region", Mr Rana demanded. |
