PSF protests govt disinterest in road accidents

JAMRUD:

Activists of Peoples Student Federation protested against the political administration for their disinterest in routine accidents on Pak-Afghan Highway in Jamrud.

On Friday, student activists led by Peoples Students Federation Khyber Agency President Hazarat Wali marched from Jamrud Press Club to Khyber Gate.

They demanded the political administration devise a comprehensive plan to control road accidents in the area. Speakers on the occasion said traffic accidents on Pak-Afghan Highway were becoming increasingly common.

They said the political administration had maintained a “criminal silence” and had not come up with any concrete plan or strategy to minimise mishaps and subsequent human loss.
