TIRINKOT (Pajhwok): Residents of central Uruzgan province have demanded the reconstruction of the Uruzgan-Kandahar highway as soon as possible.
A 34-kilometre portion of the 175-kilometre highway passes through Uruzgan and the rest through southern Kandahar province.
Funds have been earmarked for the construction of the road several times but work on rebuilding it has been delayed due to insecurity and conflict.
People have to travel to Kandahar via sub-ways, facing a whole host of difficulties due to the bad condition of the highway, blockades, conflict and mines.
Now that security has been restored, people are once . . .
