India starts work on Trilateral Highway in Myanmar
Assam Tribune | Rituraj Borthakur | Guwahati, May 16
India has commenced work on a 120-km road inside Myanmar, a road that is part of the India-Myanmar-Thailand Trilateral Highway which is expected to give a massive boost to surface connectivity and trade in Southeast Asia in the backdrop of the Act East policy.
The National Highways Authority of India (NHAI) has been appointed as technical executing agency for upgradation of the Kalewa-Yargi road in the Sagaing region, a project that will cost around Rs 1,177 crore. The present condition of the road is poor and has earthen and gravel top in majority length.
The Trilateral Highway starts from Moreh (Manipur) in India up to Mae Sot in Thailand through Myanmar. Construction of a 130-km-long stretch of the road connecting Moreh (India)/Tamu (Myanmar) to Kalewa in Myanmar has already been completed by the Border Roads Organisation of India.
