Traffic mess
This refers to the news report, "Chaos swells on City roads". All our experienced doctors believe that walking is good for health and prevents diseases like diabetes, obesity etc. But if we look at our upper middle class, courtesy the liberal policy of a bank, most of the population in Kashmir owns cars. Even to cover short distances, they travel in their cars. We criticize fruit vendors but forget shopkeepers from Lal-Chowk, Hari-Sing high street, to residency road, who park their cars near their shops and not in the allotted parking space.
