Delay in LoC opening slammed
URI (India), Oct 25: Survivors of a devastating earthquake seeking reunification with their stricken families hit out at India and Pakistan on Tuesday for delaying the opening of the Line of Control.
It is a frustrating experience,” said Ghulam Qadir, 72, whose sister, son-in-law and brother-in-law died in Muzaffarabad.
“My son went to the local authorities to ask if we could get permission to meet my relatives but they are mum. They have been telling him to come the next day.
I still do not know if they will let us go,” Qadir said in Uri, the hardest-hit district in held-Kashmir.
“As time passes by we are losing hope. I want to know why there is a delay and who is responsible? If your family is in trouble only your relatives will help,” he said near his destroyed house.—AFP
