DROSH, Jan 25: The people of Drosh have demanded that the under-construction Lowari tunnel should be opened to traffic three days a week.
In a joint press statement issued here, renowned religious and social elite Qari Jamal Abdul Nasir, Zahir Khan and Qari Fazal Haq said the Saturday situation when thousands of Chitralli people stranded on both sides of the tunnel was an eye-opener for the decision makers.
Two days a week would not be enough for the people of the largest district of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa. They said the district administration of Chitral and Dir should contact the provincial government where the illegal transport adas were humiliating the commuters.
They said that the humiliation of Chitrali people would not be tolerated. They demanded an immediate ban on the illegal transport adas in Peshawar. They also demanded that at least three days a week should be allowed for the general traffic to use the tunnel.]]>
