Dusty bazaar

Published November 30, 2015

THIS refers to problems being faced by people every weekend at Sunday Bazaar in G-8, Peshawar Mor, Islamabad. Not every person has the facility to go shopping with his family to shopping malls. Roads around the bazaar are extremely dusty and a person cannot pass it without getting dirty. Whenever a car passes by, it leaves a cloud of dust.

Most people here have allergies and presence of dust causes serious problems for them and they cannot shop properly. Will authorities concerned look into this problem.
