The villagers of Matipora in Ajas tehsil of north Kashmir’s Bandipora district are up in arms against the R&B department for failing to macadamize the road leading to the village for past several years.
Scores of villagers said the passenger vehicles refuse to ply on the road due to the bad condition of the road.
They said the road had been left unattended by the Roads and Buildings (R&B) department due to which the critical patients or people having any exigency are forced to pay hefty amount for transportation.
“The R&B department repaired the road a couple of times but by loose gravel that did not serve any purpose,” said Mushtaq Lone, an elderly resident.
