Winter Capital Jammu is grappling with an escalating traffic problem, primarily caused\u00a0\u00a0due to mis management\u00a0\u00a0on the part of the Jammu Traffic Police in the entire city. The growing concerns of\u00a0\u00a0residents have prompted calls for urgent action from the\u00a0\u00a0Jammu Traffic police to curb this pressing problem.\u00a0\u00a0Despite repeated request to\u00a0SSP Traffic Jammu\u00a0\u00a0by residents and traders to remove illegal and wrong parking of vehicles parked by unknown people, and there\u2019s no check on this issue. When asked to DTIs traffic to remove parking at crossings and roads, he replied.. this is not\u00a0\u00a0part of our duty you can go to concerned police stations.\u00a0Traffic police\u00a0Jammu is facing a severe\u00a0\u00a0criticism due to their such kind of attitude. Traffic police personnel are seen in action only\u00a0\u00a0during VVIPs movement\u00a0\u00a0in the city, the common man are suffering a lot after the state turned into Union territory and control of Police has given to Lt Governor, J&K in place of elected Chief minister of J&K. There is no rule of law in the Union Territory of Jammu and Kashmir as entire city turned into unknown vehicles parking. People park their vehicles anywhere on roads, despite the presence of parking facilities. This careless attitude towards parking is worsening the situation every day.\u00a0With such kind of careless attitude of Traffic police,\u00a0Jammu is facing a severe traffic problem, and it\u2019s primarily caused by improper parking. This issue requires immediate attention from the traffic authorities and Transport Department.\u00a0Already reeling under massive traffic congestion due to road closures in view of the unnecessarily\u00a0\u00a0movement of VVIPs in different Jammu districts, the city is facing an additional burden as matador drivers continue to choke key approach roads and lanes, leaving commuters in distress. While the entire traffic department remains engaged in clearing way for the VVIPs only, however, the city\u2019s interior roads have been left in disarray. The commuters are struggling to cover even short distances due to traffic mismanagement. The worst-hit areas is the stretch from the\u00a0\u00a0BC Road, Jewel Chowk Bikram Chowk, Satwari Chowk, Canal road, KC Chowk, MLA hostel road, Rehari Chungi, Dental College Chowk, Ambhalla, New plots, Janipur which has turned into a daily nightmare for locals. These areas witnessing heavy congestion\u00a0\u00a0on every day, the matadors and\u00a0\u00a0buses\u00a0\u00a0either standing on crossings\u00a0\u00a0and moving at snail pace creating chaos for thousands of regular travellers.
\nLocals complained that despite repeatedly flagging the issue to police and traffic authorities, no action has been taken on the ground. Te commuters\u00a0\u00a0repeated request have fallen on deaf ears as the congestion here continues unchecked. The commuters said that a journey of barely 15\u201320 minutes now stretches into hours.\u00a0\u00a0Matadors have choked the entire city roads\u00a0\u00a0and crossings and traffic police are nowhere to be seen to provide relief. Traffic\u00a0\u00a0police Jammu must take strict measures to prevent matadors and\u00a0\u00a0buses\u00a0\u00a0not to make any crossings and roads as their parking.
\nA glaring example of lawness is that even Traffic police Jammu could not able to remove matadors in front of DGP\u2019s J&K residence at Bikram Chowk.\u00a0\u00a0Now, question arises\u00a0\u00a0whether Jammu traffic police able to\u00a0\u00a0take strict action against Matadors and buses made all crossings as\u00a0\u00a0their\u00a0\u00a0parking places in city.<\/p>\n
