Sopore, May 8: In a strange act, miscreants in Sopore town of northern Baramulla district have stolen the iron-fitted road divider reflectors, installed a month ago across the town.
Locals said that the road divider reflectors which were installed a month ago across Sopore town were stolen by the miscreants.
“At multiple locations including degree college crossing, Shahdargah etc, the iron-fitted reflectors have been stolen”, they said.
A local resident said: “Theft incidents across the town is a great concern, there must be a thorough investigation. Police must intensify night patrolling, as miscreants are taking advantage of darkness.”
Confirming the incident, an official from the executing agency – Roads and Buildings Department, Sopore said that miscreants have stolen the reflectors, however, the same will be replaced so that people in particular drivers won’t face any inconvenience.
“There are few spots which need installation of reflectors, soon they too will be covered”, officials added.
Pertinent to mention here that, the reflectors were installed a month ago after many requests from the general public as the roads across the town were turning out to be the reason for accidents during evening hours.
