Public Transport?
April 07, 2005 ( politics )
I guess there are situations which would make me happy with the state of Jamaica's public transport system; and that being the Indian-Pakistani bus that gets grenades tossed at it...
Passengers on the first cross-Kashmir bus service in nearly 60 years have crossed the Line of Control that divides the region.Some passengers on the buses between Srinagar in Indian-controlled Kashmir and Muzaffarabad in the Pakistan sector cried with joy as they crossed.
Indian PM Manmohan Singh called the new service "a caravan of peace".
The bus from Srinagar earlier survived a grenade attack at Pattan, about 27km (16 miles) from the city.
The bus had already passed when the grenade went off, injuring four people, including a policeman.
