Srinagar, Jan 12: Jammu and Kashmir National Conference president Dr Farooq Abdullah on Sunday welcomed the inauguration of the Z-Morh tunnel connecting Gagangeer to Sonamarg. He expressed hope that other tunnel projects in the valley will also be completed promptly.
In a statement issued here, Dr Farooq welcomed the inauguration of the tunnel by PM Modi, expressing confidence that the project will significantly enhance tourism in the area. “The project will revolutionise the tourist potential of Sonmarg by drastically reducing travel time. Additionally, it will alleviate the hardships faced by residents on both sides of the tunnel, who previously had to navigate a route prone to weather-related delays and heavy traffic. This measure will ensure safe travel along the entire stretch,” he said.
He urged the Government of India to accelerate the progress on various crucial tunnel projects in J&K, such as Bandipora-Gurez, Sadna Top, Akhnoor and Poonch, Singhpora and Vailoo, Sudhmahadev-Dranga, and Mughal road tunnels. The residents of these remote areas are eagerly anticipating the commencement of these projects, as they have the potential to significantly improve their lives and boost trade in the region.
“J&K Chief Minister Omar Abdullah and our Members of Parliament have been consistently urging Union Minister Nitin Gadkari to expedite the work on the tunnel projects. While we have received assurances, it is imperative that action is taken on the ground without further delay. It is time to prioritize and kickstart these projects for the benefit of all those who reside in these areas,” Dr Abdullah added.
