BAHRAIN, SWAT: Tourists flock in hundreds of thousands to Bahrain and Kalam in Swat Valley, which boosts the local hotel business. The only hurdle is that the road that leads to these places is a pile of rubble. Tourists love this paradise-like valley but the route to get there is most troublesome for most. I request the authorities concerned to build an expressway to the Valley similar to the Murree Expressway. This is the need of the hour for both the local population and the tourists travelling to the area.
