  “I visited Motiyar and other areas in Rainawari, Srinagar today and got to know the acute problems faced   by people in Meer Behri and other areas of Dal Lake for want of proper  road connectivity,” Soz said in a statement.
 He said a “large number of people gathered and explained to me the difficulties in respect of road connectivity and shortage of drinking water in the entire area there.”
 Soz assured the people that their problems would be solved urgently.
 “But,  at the same time  people should show restrain and  not indulge in  stone pelting which had created  difficulties  for police to render help to the families effected  by  the unfortunate incident yesterday in which a bridge had collapsed causing injuries to many
 people,” Soz said adding “I  advice the people to  explain their difficulties  in a democratic way, so that  early redressal  is possible.”
