450 Bunkers completed in Poonch
Poonch, Jan 02 (HS): District Development Commissioner (DDC) Poonch Rahul Yaday today said that more than 450 Bunkers were completed in Poonch district.
He said I personally reviewed the progress of construction of bunkers in border areas of Balakote, Mankote, Haveli, Mandi and Mendhar for which plan was finalised a month back. He said we will complete almost all bunkers till Ending march.
Worthwhile to mention here that the administration has initiated the pilot project of construction of 1388 bunkers ( 1188 Centre Govt Funded and 200 in Languishing Project) in villages located along LOC which come directly in line of firing from across the border. These bunkers will be safe havens in hours of ceasefire violations to minimise loss of life in these areas. The project is targeted to be completed during the current financial year.
Yaday said around 400- 500 bunkers are at different stags and soon they will be completed he said we are working on the target to complete construction of all bunkers till 31 March.
