South Waziristan tribal elders decry hardship as Wana-Gomal Zam Road remains in ruins
Residents and tribal elders in Lower South Waziristan criticize the deteriorated condition of the Wana-Gomal Zam Road, a critical trade and communication route linking Pakistan and Afghanistan, due to years of neglect and weather-related damage. The road's collapse has caused travel difficulties, economic hardship, and stalled regional trade, with a Rs25 billion reconstruction project pending approval.
