Srinagar: Jammu and Kashmir minister Sakina Itoo said it was “deeply distressing” to see ambulances stranded and students missing classes during convoy movement in Kashmir.

She appealed to Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha to explore practical traffic management measures that can uphold essential security protocols while ensuring uninterrupted passage for ambulances.

Itoo also said such steps should help minimise public inconvenience, including disruptions faced by students and daily commuters.
