Srinagar: Former MLA Aijaz Ahmad Mir on Friday took to X (formerly Twitter) to highlight the growing chaos outside cold storage units at Lassipora area of south Kashmir’s Pulwama.
In his post, Mir said long queues of Tata mobile trucks loaded with apples could be seen stranded outside these facilities due to mismanagement, causing traffic disruptions and massive inconvenience to the public.
He further alleged that some units were arbitrarily shutting down operations three days a week, adding to the crisis and inflicting huge losses on growers and traders dependent on timely clearance of their produce.
Calling for urgent government action, Mir urged the concerned authorities to ensure smooth functioning, transparency, and accountability from the cold storage operators.
