Rajouri: Khan : Bela Colony in Rajouri is witnessing growing concerns over daily traffic congestion, land grabbing disputes, and frequent police FIRs, creating an atmosphere of tension among residents. Locals say the situation has reached an alarming level where vehicles remain choked for long hours, while land-related conflicts have become a routine affair in the area.
Residents allege that illegal land grabbing by certain influential elements and land mafias in Bela Colony has led to repeated confrontations. These disputes are reportedly resulting in day-to-day scuffles and police complaints, forcing authorities to register frequent FIRs over land possession and encroachment issues.
At the same time, the narrow road stretch passing through Bela Colony has become a major traffic bottleneck, especially near the Bela Bridge and the route leading towards the hospital. Due to increasing population and unregulated construction in the area, vehicles often remain stuck for long periods, causing inconvenience to commuters, patients, and emergency services.
Local residents believe that the only long-term solution to both the traffic congestion and recurring land disputes is the construction of a flyover from Bela Bridge to the hospital road. According to them, a properly planned flyover would streamline traffic movement, reduce pressure on the existing road, and minimize conflicts arising from land encroachments along the roadside.
The people of the area have appealed to the local MLA to take immediate notice of the situation and sanction a flyover project connecting Bela Bridge with the hospital road. They say such an infrastructure project would not only ease traffic congestion but also help curb the influence of land mafias by regulating the area’s development.
Residents emphasized that urgent intervention from the administration and elected representatives is needed to restore normalcy in Bela Colony and ensure that the area does not continue to witness daily traffic jams, land disputes, and law-and-order problems.
