“There is no concerned authority of the NHIDCL with whom we can raise the issue. Moreover, the works for this season have not yet begun despite the passage of about one month since the opening up of the Zojila Pass.

“Therefore, first of all I would like to request you to kindly disengage the services of NHIDCL with regards to execution of works on the roads in Kargil Town and assign the same to the Public Works Department.

“Keeping in view the short working season and the slow-paced work on other developmental projects assigned to the NHIDCL including construction of hostel buildings, school fencing walling etc shall also be assigned to some other agency so that these projects could be completed within the stipulated time”, the letter maintained.
