Due to the Covid lockdown, shops are allowed to open between 7 am and 12 on odd-even basis, yet all types of rehriwalas that keep stationed or keep moving in the middle of the road, lead to traffic jam, defeating the very purpose of the lockdown. The rehriwalas should be allotted some space to carry out their business. Ramesh Gupta, Narwana
Construction of bus queue shelter of poor quality
The accompanying photograph since taken adjacent to Sector 9 (on the main dividing road of Sector 8 and 9) in Panchkula, speaks volumes about the poor quality construction in respect of this so called ultra modern bus queue shelter(BQS). It may be recalled that Panchkula administration had promised a large number such BQS across the city. However, one really wonders whether the local bus commuters truly deserved such a shabby treatment? Kumar Gupt, Panchkula
Getting sectors rid of dairies not easy task
The report "Dairies in Panchkula city to have new address" (Chandigarh Tribune, May 28) provides a glimmer of hope among residents but it is easier said than done. When the urban estate was carved out over fifty years ago, the vote-bank politics and legal procedural wrangles prevailed to leave all sectors dotted with 2-3 villages each defeating the very purpose of planned urbanisation. Dairies thrive in these villages and cattle roam freely on sector roads. The task is daunting and it remains to be seen as to how this project of shifting 108 dairies from these villages will be done.
