MAIMANA (Pajhwok): A number of residents of northwestern Faryab province say the Taliban militants have blocked the transportation road to Kohistan district from the past two months, leaving the residents with acute shortage of food items.
Residents and a number of influential individuals said prices of basic commodities had soared in Kohistan due to the road blockade by the Taliban.
If the government failed to reopen the road in the near future, the people would get caught in snows and they would face complete starvation in the . . .
