POOJA THAKUR JAMMU, JAN 29 The sorry state of the passenger sheds especially at Dogra Chowk has become a pressing issue for commuters in Jammu, as these facilities setup under Smart City project continues to crumble into disrepair, rendering them virtually useless. With growing discontent among the public, concerns over the neglected infrastructure are reaching a tipping point. The neglected state of the facility has left citizens questioning the authorities responsible for its maintenance. The once passenger shed at Dogra Chowk now stands as a shadow of its former self. Lack of repair has turned the shelter into an eyesore for those relying on it for a brief respite during their commutes. Regular users of the Dogra Chowk transportation hub express frustration over the deteriorating conditions of the passenger shed. “Authorities need to carry out repair and beautify these sheds”, said Parshotam Singh, a local resident. At times, residents and daily commuters have taken to social media to voice their concerns, sharing images of the dilapidated shelters and calling on local authorities to address the issue urgently. “The outcry underscores the growing dissatisfaction with the apparent neglect of facilities crucial to the daily lives of many”, said Jagdeep Singh.
