Srinagar, May 14: A delegation of the Peoples Democratic Party led by party spokesperson Iqbal Tramboo, former MLA Noor Mohammad Sheikh, former State Secretary Arif Laigroo and spokesperson Shokiya Quareshi on Wednesday visited Rakhe Arth Bemina to assess civic issues faced by local residents.
During the visit, residents raised concerns over accumulation of garbage, poor sanitation, drainage problems, waterlogging and foul smell in the locality, alleging that the deteriorating conditions were affecting public health and daily life.
Locals also complained about damaged roads and demanded immediate repair and macadamisation, saying repeated appeals to the concerned departments had yielded no results.
The PDP leaders termed the situation unfortunate and said residents were being deprived of basic civic amenities despite repeated assurances by the administration.
They urged the Srinagar Municipal Corporation Commissioner and Vice Chairman of LCMA to intervene and ensure immediate redressal of the issues faced by the people of the area.
The delegation also assured residents that the party would continue to raise their concerns at appropriate forums until the issues are resolved.
