Illegal Bus Stands in Peshawar

Dear Sir,

Through this very online newspaper I would like to thanks Mr. Habib Mughal President Trader Brothers and other office bearers for taking successive steps regarding the illicit and illegal bus stands moving from Peshawar to Chitral. It is worth mentioning that the flying coach services in this route have created a lot of problems and difficulties to the passengers. These are the one side of the coin while on the other side there is the behavior of the adda owners and office bearers which is not a human behavior. They instruct the passengers to reach the stand at 6:00 pm while the vehicle moves at 9:00 or 10:00pm. While moving to Chitral the vehicle doesn't moves in its actual road, the drivers take the short cut roads keeping in risk the lives of the passengers, in short we may say that the life of 18 peoples doesn't keep any meaning in front of the drivers, on the other side the drivers demand for huge amounts for the luggage's and baggage's that the passengers bring with them (according to a passenger coming from Karachi that hasn't paid one penny from Karachi to Peshawar while Rs.200.00 rupees has been taken in this very route)

In Chitral some 95% of the peoples use the service as a mean of transportation, while the rest 05% have the capability to fly. So it is the responsibility of the state to protect the life of the public in order to avoid accidents and provide safe journey to the public. The safe journey and safe roads are the rights of any citizen, and it is one of the basic requirements.

It is humbly requested in honor of the higher authorities and the related officials to take immediate measures regarding the problem being faced by Chitrali's and I may suggest that adda owners should stop the illegal bus stands, and a stand in General Bus Stand at Peshawar should be allocated for Chitrali pass angers.

The road from Timergirah to Dir should be constructed in safe mode. And Mr. Mughal go ahead we the public with you.

Thank you,

Syed Tahir Hussain
