The residents of different areas here are facing immense hardships due to the deplorable condition of Argi Chek-Sangervani road that connects at least seven villages.
Locals from Agri Chek, Abhama, Bhagandar, Achegoza, Sangervani and other villages told the news that a road connecting these villages to the rest parts of the district, has deteriorated significantly over the time, making it nearly impossible for vehicles and pedestrians to traverse through the road.
Zeeshan Ahmad, a local resident said that the road has been lying in dilapidated condition for a long time but the government has ignored this vital way.
This road is being used by hundreds of people to reach Pakherpora, Yousmarg and Chaar-e-Shareef but due to unknown reasons the road has not been macadamized.
Shakir Ahmed, a resident of Sangervani said that the road is riddled with large potholes, uneven surfaces, and eroded sections, which worsen the situation during the rainy season, leading to frequent traffic disruptions and increasing the risk of accidents.
He said that students, patients and daily passengers are suffering as public transport usually remains off the road now as they are hesitant in running their vehicles on the road.
Locals said that they have raised their concerns with the authorities several times highlighting the urgent need for macadamization to ensure safe and smooth travel.
They said that despite these appeals, nothing has been done in this regard, leaving residents to grapple with the road’s poor state daily, appealing to the higher ups to look into the matter at an earliest and macadamize the road at an earliest.
They have sought attention of Deputy Commissioner (DC) Pulwama in this regard
