Ukhrul, March 19 2015:
Several developmental projects initiated under the Prime Minister Gram Sarak Yojana (PMGSY) in Chingai sub-division, Ukhrul district have overlooked the Detailed Project Report (DPR), said Challou Village Authority secretary Shimthar Shatsang.
Speaking to reporters today, Shimthar Shatsang alleged that the assigned contractor has failed to implement the construction work of the 9 km stretch Challou-Kuingai road properly.
Instead of constructing the Challou-Kuingai road, the assigned contractor has constructed a road leading to a different direction, said Shimthar Shatsang.
Chingai-Kuingai and Chingai-Challou roads are already there, he clarified.
"A little distance from Chingai is a junction which leads to Challou on one side and Kuingai on the side.
However, instead of constructing Challou-Kuingai connecting road, the assigned contractor has constructed a road from Kuingai till the junction.
This is against the DPR," said Shimthar Shatsang.
Construction of a 300 metre long Challou-Tusom road has also stopped and two bailey bridges which were to be constructed have been not yet initiated.
The Manipur State Rural Roads Development Agency which is looking after all the PMGSY related works should scrutinize the works being initiated in the area and ensure proper implementation of all the developmental projects accordingly, Shimthar Shatsang added.
