FAIZABAD (Pajhwok): Residents of the Pamir mountains in northeastern Badakhshan province complain about their poor livelihood situation and ask the government to respond to their problems.
On the other hand, some local officials say they are trying to shift residents of the Pamir mountainous area to Faizabad city, the provincial capital.
A number of residents of Pamir in Wakhan district complain that routes leading to their area are impassable particularly during winter and snowfalls.
They say they lack access to electricity, asphalted roads, clinics, schools, health facilities and other basic services in their area.
