PDP MLA Waheed Para Raises Concerns Over Kashmir Highway Traffic Stoppages
· India · Deccan Herald, deccanherald
Peoples Democratic Party MLA Waheed Para has formally flagged the frequent and prolonged traffic stoppages on the Srinagar-Jammu National Highway. He described the restrictive measures as a 'Berlin Wall' that disrupts the daily movement of residents and commuters across the region. Para stated that these repeated closures hamper economic activity and cause significant distress to the local population. The administration has not yet provided a specific response regarding the operational reasons for these ongoing traffic disruptions. The highway remains a critical lifeline for the valley, and such stoppages frequently lead to long queues and delays for travellers.
Why it matters
The frequent highway closures directly impact the daily mobility, trade, and essential supply chains for residents and businesses across Jammu & Kashmir.
