Vegetable yard lying deserted for a decade

THIS year, again, there has been no business in the vegetable marketing yard established by the State Marketing Board at Larji village in Banjar subdivision. For the past decade, the yard has been lying deserted as arhtiyas do not come here. Due to this, fruit traders have also stopped visiting the yard. Not a single brick has been laid in the last two decades at the yard, established in 2002. Vegetable and fruit producers of Sainj valley are forced to sell their products in Takoli or Bhuntar, adding to their transportation expenses. The facilities should be provided at the marketing yard on priority. Mohar Singh, Larji

Abandoned cattle in Shimla district

SEVERAL abandoned cows can be seen on the national highway stretch between Theog and Sandhu. These abandoned cattle roam on the road, causing a lot of inconvenience to the commuters. The threat of an accident looms over commuters due to this. The authorities concerned should ensure these cattle are taken off the road and shifted to cow shelters. Madan, Shimla

MC dumping garbage at Nehru Park

EVER since the Manali MC stopped accepting garbage from Kullu, the Kullu MC has started dumping waste at Nehru Park in the Sarwari area of Kullu town. This place is centrally located within the town and the accumulation of garbage here can be catastrophic. It is very unfortunate that the MC has not been able to chalk out a plan for the scientific disposal of garbage. Mukesh, Sarwari
