Bagh - Heavy damage at Paddar Gulsher Khan due to rains

Bagh (Yousuf Kashmiri) Recent heavy rains have badly damaged the roads in various parts of Bagh.The road connecting Bagh to Muzaffarabad via Sudhan Galli has been totally vanished at Paddar Nallah. Several houses have been reported to be destroyed while land sliding has also caused damages at various places of Bagh. The people of Paddar Gulsher Khan and adjacent areas are suffering a lot of problems due to the main road link disconnection which has been wiped away by the flooded water. Specially children, women and patients are suffering the most. The road contactors are always using insufficient and poor quality materials for the roads which cause this kind of destruction every year. The people of Paddar Gulsher Khan had always been demanding the government of AJK to construct a bridge on Paddar mini river and even many politicians promised near elections to construct the bridge but no step has been taken so far.
