88 dead, over 1,000 injured in 699 accidents in IIOJK’s Jammu region
Poor infrastructure blamed against Modi regime’s development claims
Jammu : At least 88 people were killed and over 1,000 injured in road accidents in Jammu region of Indian illegally occupied Jammu and Kashmir during the first seven months of this year.
According to Kashmir Media Service, the casualties were reported across Kathua, Samba, Rajouri and Poonch districts of the region.
According to an analysis of road accident data from January 1 to July 31 by Traffic Police Rural Jammu, a total of 699 accidents were reported in the four districts, resulting in 88 fatalities and injuries to 1,001 persons.
The analysis revealed that two-wheelers were involved in 309 accidents, accounting for 44 per cent of the total accidents reported during the period.
The high number of accidents exposes the dilapidated condition of roads and poor infrastructure in the occupied territory, contrary to the Modi regime’s tall claims of development in IIOJK.
