Heavy downpour adds to woes of Mendhar shopkeepers on Monday.

JAMMU, June 15: Heavy rains created a havoc in Mendhar market once again this time as entire rain water got accumulated in the market due to poor drainage system and entered into the shops.
The shopkeepers said that their entire goods were damaged  after the rain water which got accumulated due to heavy downpour today entered up to two feet level in the shops.
To protest against the failure of authorities to construct a proper drainage system in the market despite repeated requests by the residents and shopkeepers of the area, the Beopar Mandal Mendhar staged a protest demonstration in the town and demanded action against erring officers responsible for the plight of shopkeepers.
They said people in Mendhar face this problem for years together and Government never bothered to solve it by constructing a deep drainage system in the area.
