Sopore: To ensure smooth traffic movement in and around Sopore town, the employees of the Municipal Council Sopore along with Police removed encroachment by street vendors and illegal cab stands.
An anti-encroachment drive was led by SHO Sopore Khalid Fayaz, who said that the streets of the town were mainly occupied by street vendors and illegal cab stands, causing traffic jams throughout the town and inconvenience to the pedestrians.
The police officer said that the anti-encroachment drive was for the people of town who were suffering due to daily traffic jams.
“So we, along the municipal authorities, removed the encroached spaces and provided particular space to these street vendors to sell their merchandise. However, despite accommodating them, many are still seen on the roads,” the SHO said.
Meanwhile, the employees of municipal council Sopore also issued warnings on loud speakers warning the street vendors and cab drivers not to encroach on the spaces meant for the free movement of public.
