124 roads closed in Uttarakhand
154 roads are closed in the state due to rain and landslides, out of which 30 roads have been opened. While the work of opening the other 124 is going on on a war footing.
Public Works Minister Satpal Maharaj has instructed the departmental officials that during the monsoon, everyone must pick up their phones and mobiles, so that people can get the correct information about the closure of the road in time.
He said, keeping in mind the problems faced by passengers, there should be no laxity in opening the roads. If any road is closed during monsoon, passengers should get prior information about it at their previous station. Passengers should also be informed about alternative routes.
