Gaurav Gupta, former General Secretary of the Chamber of Commerce and Industry Jammu, has called for the immediate suspension of the Toll Plaza at Sarore in light of the recent damage to Tarnah Bridge on the National Highway in Samba district.
Addressing a press conference at Press Club today, Gaurav Gupta said that the Tarnah Bridge, situated between Dyala Chak and Chadwal in Samba district, was collapsed on July 19, 2023 due to incessant rains and flash floods, leading to disrupting vital transportation routes.
Gupta emphasized that commuters are currently enduring significant hardships due to the diversion onto an alternate road, which is notably narrow. The rerouting of traffic has resulted in congestion and extended travel times, particularly as the entire traffic load has been redirected to border roads.
