There should be no cuts for
about 5km on it, as it will cause
many accidents, he asserted.
When asked what people will
do while coming out from places
like BOSE, SKIMS, the Sub Inspector said, They have to use the

bit of time, but it is the fault of the
state government (that they build
such institutions on the highway).
Abdul Bhat, a constable, adds,
It is better to be late than never.
Drivers must drive on their respective lanes.
As the rush on the highway
gathers momentum, many people
resort to driving in the wrong di-
rection.
There is no point of bisection,
says renowned columnist, Ajaz ul
Haque, adding, I have to take my side
some 7 km from here at Parimpora.
Though driving on the wrong
side is not justified, but there has
to be bisection at least at SKIMS
college, he says.

the institutions on this side suffers
the most, having no crossing outside it.
Many old people cannot cross
the highway. Vehicles travel at very
fast speed. About 4-5 accidents occurred in the past 8 months, said
Muhammad Ramzan. He added
that the only solution to this problem is building flyovers.
