More than road repairs, the militants’ rallies and demonstrations are the main cause of traffic. There should be a law banning such rallies; they obstruct traffic flow on main thoroughfares and even on side streets.
The authorities should not tolerate the holding of such rallies at the expense of the public. These rallies by the militants prevent people from getting to their workplaces or to their destinations on time. They add to the awful traffic congestion in our worsening traffic situation. These groups behind these rallies should be banned because of the effect of their activities.
What have they accomplished with such rallies anyway? The public does not mind them anymore, especially with what they are saying, what they are fighting for. In fact their annoying presence is already being felt and resented by everyone. I personally got caught in heavy traffic caused by militants recently.
