Daily cab drivers who ply from Chrari Shareef to Srinagar have been threatened by some people in Chadoora town of central Kashmir and asked to stop passing through their area for their respective destinations.

The drivers alleged that some locals at Chadoora threatened them of dire consequences in case they defy the warnings owing to which the cab service between Chrar Shareef and Srinagar remained suspended on Saturday.

Hundreds of commuters suffered following the suspension of cab services and people sought the government intervention to resolve the issue.

Locals said that there are actually two main issues contesting the rise in conflict which seems to be superseded among three places Charari Shareef, Nagam and Chadoora.

And Mainly, Charar Town alone suffers because of this absurd feud in place.

According to one of the drivers from Charari  Sharief,  the first and foremost cause responsible for this bitterness is ill hostility among the people of all these places.

He said, “Some people want to place their Marquees on Chadoora Bridge. They kind of want to make that a market of hawkers.

Well, that was fine but how come can it be a good idea of placing carts on the roads.”

They want the drivers to take diversions without crossing their way. Otherwise, overlooking their warnings can get dangerous for Charari Shareef drivers,” he added.

Another driver from Charari Shareef said that there is no parking for drivers in Srinagar. Due to non availability of taxi stand at Srinagar, They have been running helter skelter and face lots of inconvenience the government has never looked into it.

The drives said that unless their demands are met they will go on strike and won’t ply on the route notwithstanding the sufferings of commuters.
