Srinagar, Nov 1: After seventy years of independence, the residents of Chad Nagara, a remote village near the border, are celebrating the arrival of their first paved road. Generations of villagers have struggled with the muddy, unpaved paths connecting them to the nearest city, enduring long and challenging journeys for essential travel.
Local villagers are expressing their gratitude toward MLA and Deputy Chief Minister Jammu and Kashmir, Surendra Chaudhary, who fulfilled this long-standing demand. “After becoming an MLA, Chaudhary made our village road a priority, instructing the department to pave it immediately,” said a local. “Today, we finally see it completed.”
While this recent construction has signalled significant progress, villagers noted that an additional 2 kilometers of road leading to the historic Baba Narsingh Devasthan remains unpaved. They have requested that the Deputy Chief Minister expedite this work as well. In a recent phone conversation, Chaudhary assured the villagers that the remaining stretch would soon be addressed.
Des Raj, another local resident, said, “Some people have only tried to gain visibility without real results, but under Chaudhary’s direction, we are seeing true development.” He added that this paved road would be especially beneficial to students, who will no longer have to trek through muddy paths to reach school.
“For decades, leaders have assured us of a paved road. Finally, under Deputy Chief Minister Surendra Chaudhary’s leadership, our demand has been fulfilled, bringing a sense of joy and relief to the entire village,” he said. (KNO)
