The movement of VIPs has been creating traffic chaos in the twin cities of Rawalpindi and Islamabad. On any given day, the preferential treatment being given to ‘important’ personalities is resulting in road blocks and large queues of cars at busy junctions. VIP movements have become a bane for the people living in the two cities.
Irrespective of the nature of emergencies, people are left in a limbo for more than half-an-hour at times and it takes hours for the chaos left behind by the VIP movement to clear. VIPs also insist on going through arterial roads on the pretext that they should be allowed to follow the shortest possible route. If VIPs have to be given preferential treatment, why do they not follow the routes that have less traffic? That way they can reach their destinations faster without troubling ordinary citizens.
