Tourist Traffic Jam at Upper Tintek

MANGAN, 20 May: This is one traffic jam that no one should have complaints about given that this is proof of the prosperity being ferried to North Sikkim by way of tourism. This spot at Upper Tintek Falls in East Sikkim witnesses a regular traffic jam due to the tourist vehicles which stop here en route to North Sikkim. This has become a popular sightseeing spot for the tourists. This however disrupts regular traffic at this spot and jams at times take up to an hour to ease due to erratic and inconsiderate parking. The non-tourist traffic suffers and commuters have been appealing to drivers to work out a better parking arrangement around this area.
