RAJOURI, Jan 31: The locals of a locality in Rajouri town along with students protested against the act of a person from Radha Potha area who blocked the street and left about 40 families and students of a school to suffer.
Due to closure of the street, the locals turned sufferers as they have no alternate passage. They raised slogans against the anti- social act of a local resident and later called on DC Rajouri Vikas Kundal, who immediately deputed ACR Rajouri Imran Rashid Kataria to resolve the issue.
ACR Rajouri personally visited the spot along with staff and resolved the issue by opening the street and warned the local namely Naseem Shah not to repeat such act again otherwise strict legal action will be taken against him. Locals told that Naseem Shah who has sold land to these families had promised them for providing a 10 ft wide street and later he closed the street for blackmailing these families and left these people to suffer.
The protesting students told that due to closure of this street they are suffering a lot as they failed to reach school and their studies were also suffering. They extended gratitude to DC Rajouri and ACR Imran Rashid for resolving the long pending issue.
