Budgam, Jan 3: District Commissioner, Dr Syed Sehrish Asgar Thursday visited   Srinagar International Airport to take stock of traffic management for smooth passage of Umrah pilgrims and other passengers towards airport.

The DC also took review of the changes made in the backdrop of the traffic congestion complaints and the decision taken in the recently held meeting in this connection.

While chairing a joint meeting attended by Director Airport, SSP Anti-Hijacking, SSP Traffic Rural and ARTO, the DC observed that special lane starting from GIO’s Mess point has greatly helped in de-congesting the traffic on the Airport road. “The plan has worked well as we are getting positive feedback from the passengers and pilgrims in this regard,” she said.
