DODA, Apr 16: The residents from various villages besides relatives of bus accident victims, which took place recently in which 6 persons were killed and 55 others received injuries held protest against the Government, District Administration and Traffic Authorities for failing to provide more SRTC Bus Service on Doda Dhara Gundna road.
The protesters hailing from Bidwan, Chata, Hanch, Zehand, Dhara and Posta villages demanded new fleet of the State Road Transport Corporation (SRTC) buses as private buses plying on various routes in the district particularly on Doda-Gundna road are in dilapidated condition.
One of the protesters said that roads are in a bad condition and despite repeated complaints the authorities have done nothing so far.
The protesters continued their protest for several hours outside DC Office leading to disruption of traffic movement.
The protesters appealed to the Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti, MoS Transport Sunil Sharma, DC Doda and other concerned authorities to look into this grave issue and recommend early services of SRTC buses on the link routes of the district.
