GNS JAMMU, : To provide better transport facility to the people at the doorstep, the State Government has planned to introduce the concept of radio taxi few months back, but the fate of plan hangs in imbalance owing to red-tapism.
According to sources, Chief Secretary Madhav Lal had directed the transport authorities of the state to engage transaction advisor by September 5 for introducing radio taxi service in the twin capitals.
In this regard, he issued the directions during a high-level meeting. The transaction advisor will initiate the process of preparing and inviting bids in a transparent manner to facilitate launch of the radio cab service.
“The Radio Taxi Service, fitted with up-to-date facilities, on operation will be available at the doorsteps to the callers adding the facility will add modern and new dimensions to the traffic system in the state. The service will be available round the clock both to the citizens and tourists once it takes off and grows in popularity” sources added.
But till date no fruitful step has been taken by the concerned authority to make things happens and the plan is limited to the paper work only.
Sources maintained that this is not the first time when the state government has made strategies to improve the transportation facilities but failed to execute the same.
