Taking prompt action, Legislator from Saikul Assembly Constituency, Yamthong Haokip, today, visited the breakdown portions of Imphal-Saikul road, which rendered untold misery to the people of Saikul Sub Division .
The local MLA was accompanied by ADC Sadar Hills Spokesperson, Thangkam Lupheng who monitored clearance of the road .
Following the immediate intervention of the two neighbouring MLAs and social worker Rajendro, the work for clearing the road began early morning and a temporary way/ diversion was also constructed, with the help of three JCBs provided by the MLAs and Rajendro .
The timely response of Saikul MLA and Khundrakpham MLA once again reconnected Saikul Sub Division with the rest of the State, since this afternoon .
The breakdown of road completely cut off Saikul areas when the road sunk near Champhai, located around 6/7 Km away from Saikul Sub Division HQs , yesterday at around 3 pm.
Since then, the road had restricted plying of heavy vehicles .
MLA Yamthong Haokip said, “The local legislators of Saikul and Khundrakpham are concerned about our electorates and their grievances while we are also very aware of the importance of Imphal- Saikul road” .
The MLA said that the road will be completely clear by today evening and also assured a normal traffic flow by tomorrow .
On behalf of Saikul people, Thangkam Lupheng conveyed gratitude towards the MLA of Saikul and Khundrakpham and Rajendro for their immediate intervention.
