In a statement issued here, today said the Government should start the process of land acquisition for widening of the road and as the most of the State land falls in the area the authorities should Start the process of land acquisition by demarking the State land so that the work on road widening can be started and the people of the area relieved off the problems being created due to frequent traffic jams.
Mr Bhandari has made an appeal to DC Kishtwar in this regard and urged him to take necessary steps in this connection.
