Muzaffarabad, PoJK, 15 July 2024: - A protest took place in Muzaffarabad city of Pakistan-occupied Jammu and Kashmir, demanding the widening of the Shaheed Gali to Garhi Habibullah road. Protesters highlighted severe traffic congestion, deteriorating road conditions, and health issues caused by the road's narrowness. Children struggle to commute to school due to frequent traffic jams, which have led to several accidents. Manzoor Ali Shah and other speakers warned the government that, without immediate action, a larger protest movement with widespread support would be mobilized.
