Kulgam, July 1 -- Failure of authorities to undertake repairs of the Chamgund-Kulgam main road is posing risk of accidents.

"There are elderly people, patients travelling via the road who face a lot of inconvenience due to the bad condition of the road," said the locals from the area.

The commuters said that the road has been in shambles for a long time, making the commute difficult.

"We had requested the R&B Department several times to macadamize the road but only fake promises were made and nothing was done unfortunately," a local said.

"We have been demanding macadamization for a long time now. Our vehicles are also damaged. If the road is not macadamized then we would not ply vehicles on the road," said a driver from the area.
