Bikaner: A rail track that cuts through the main Bikaner market and divides the city between east and west has become an unlikely poll issue with people united on one central point – that the traffic jams must stop and politicians must fulfil their promise to provide an elevated road.
People residing in the area said that the track causes traffic snarls across the market on a daily basis.
“This is a burden in the city. Just because of this track, the development of the entire city remains stalled. The city is divided into two parts — East and West. There are situations of medical emergencies that affect both sides. When there is a traffic jam in this area, it takes at least an hour to clear the roads,” Gehlot told PTI.
