The former legislator and Former Vice Chairperson Wakf Board said the inner links of Lankreshipora locality are in dilapidated conditions despite the locality being only few miles away from district headquarters and having tourism importance. He said the village is a gateway to Wullar and hosts maximum tourists who intend to sail into Wullar.
Bhat said besides giving tough time to the local residents, the ugly dumpy roads dull of potholes present a bad image of the district to the visitors.
