PATHANKOT: Bringing the state’s attention towards illegal mining in Pathankot, Rajya Sabha member Partap Singh Bajwa said the unchecked activity is posing a threat to the road bridge connecting the district with Kangra in Himachal Pradesh.
In a release issued on Monday, the Congressman alleged that large-scale illegal mining had created deep ravines in the Chakki river ranging up to 100 feet downside from the edge of the railway bridge, which are brewing danger for the road bridge.
