Srinagar, Apr 01 : The dilapidated condition of a public washroom located at Guru Bazar Karan Nagar Srinagar has become a breeding ground for garbage and poses a serious health hazard to the residents, who are now urging the administration to take swift action.
Speaking to the news agency , local residents have expressed their anger with the current condition of the washroom, describing it as an “unhygienic hub of diseases.”
The washroom constructed by Srinagar Municipality Corporation is also maintained by it.
Arsalan, a local said the situation is intolerable as the facility is not only an eyesore but also a major health risk.
