4-lane Jammu Akhnoor road

Sir,
Thank you for highlighting the difficulties faced by thousands of daily commuters travelling on the old and worn out service road from Tope bridge to Bakshi nagar bridge. ( D.E. 24/4)I have a word of admiration for your spl correspondent Gopal Sharma for his detailed and invasive report on how contractors of the big profit yielding road project play with the health of both the travelling public in general and the inhabitants of Shakti Nagar in particular.
For the latter it has been a nightmare. Air in and around the neighbourhood is simply pure flying dust going in their lungs and blood. Look at the houses , inner roads, lanes and paths, you will be appalled wading through dust and mud.It is a pity that even visible slush dirt and disease are not taken as sufficient proof of what the careless contractors are doing to innocent people. It is like Pakistan demanding more proof of its atrocities on us, before it may mull any action.
