DODA, June 28: Chiralla Development Society here today has demanded blacktopping of seven km long road from Sunarthawa to Tehsil Headquarters Chiralla.
Residents of the villages along the road and adjoining area are suffering because of the worst condition of this road which requires blacktopping and proper repair.
The road connects the areas of Panchayat Sunarthawa, Rokali, Chagsoo and half of Panchayat Chiralla with Tehsil headquarters Chiralla and is the shortest route to connect with main highway.
A local Khaleeq Ahmed Batt told the Excelsior that it was very unfortunate that Macadamization work of this road was started some 3-4 years back but it was unsatisfactory and still remained incomplete.
Locals informed that the road behind Bajja village is dangerous and risky to use as it has big trenches and pits and at some places the roads looks like a Nalla and during rains it becomes very slippery.
The affected people have demanded repair and blacktopping of the road as it connects several villages.
Chiralla Development Society has urged upon the J&K LG, Manoj Sinha and Deputy Commissioner Doda, Vishesh Paul Mahajan to intervene and get the problem resolved or blacklist the concern contractors for the poor work.
