Sir,
It is quite heartening to know that Kargil-Zanskar road has been made a National Highway. This road is the only surface link of Zanskar with the rest of the country. Being a snow bound area it remains closed for almost six months creating thereby many problems for the people of this region.
Now, when Government of India has sanctioned Rs 1015.26 crores for its upgradation, one expects that work on it is executed expeditiously.
This road will surely change the socio-economic outlook of the people of the area. It will also help in attracting more tourists to this virgin valley the beauty of which has remained unexplored so far. Besides, it will generate job opportunities for people of the region.
Yours etc…
Padma Yenchen, Kargil
