Srinagar April 26(RNA) : Former MLA Pahalgam and General Secretary Rafi Ahmad Mir has showed strong dismay over lack of portable drinking water supply in South Kashmir including the Sub Division Pahalgam and adjoining areas. During his statement to the press, Mir said the locals in various parts of South Kashmir have been disconcerted due to the lack of portable drinking water supply. Besides this, the tourists have been facing hardship due to the mismanagement and non - availability of the service. He also called upon the concerned authorities to intervene into the matter and resolve this on priority basis. "It is a matter of dismal to know that during Ramadan, the local inhabitants have to suffer due to the non availability of drinking water supply. Eid is ahead and the plight of locals needs to be addressed on priority basis. Besides this , despite knowing that the footfall of tourists this year has been at a good pace, however the authorities failed in providing better yet basic facilities to them and leaving them astray" he said.
