Hyderabad: Thousands of pilgrims not only from Telangana but from various parts of India and other countries visit Jahangir Peer Dargah daily.
The dargah which is famously known as the JP dargah is managed by the Telangana State Wakf Board. Despite receiving huge donations, the concerned authorities have failed to provide basic infrastructure near the dargah.
Pilgrims who visit the dargah are facing a lot of difficulties due to sewerage overflow and bad roads leading to the shrine. They are struggling to reach the dargah even on foot.
Speaking to Siasat reporters, the local people said that the government and the concerned authorities in the Wakf Board are not paying attention to the difficulties begin faced by them and pilgrims. Apart from bad roads, garbage accumulated at the nearby lake has become the breeding ground for mosquitos and other flies.
Concerned authorities must take concrete steps to resolve the inconvenience being faced by the pilgrims and locals at Jahangir Peer Dargah.
