Chandel, July 23 2019:
Chandel district's Japhou bazar to New Samtal road through Khongy on village, about 18 km BRTF stretch is in worst condition due to prolonged negligence, said locals of the villages along the stretch.
The deteriorated road has worsened as it is rainy season, said the villagers while condemning the authorities concerned and Government for not keeping up the maintenance works of the road for long.

Criticising the Government of its schemes and missions, a villager questioned "To which hill has the Government gone" .
Go To Hill Mission should focus on connectivity, he advised the Government.
Commuters risk their lives on the road everyday to get daily essential items and needs from other villages and district Headquarters, he said pointing out that transporting patients particularly pregnant women poses great risk.
While appealing the Government to reconstruct the road, Sulam Area Chiefs Association chairman and chief of Khongyon village R Angningden said that the villagers are not able to use/ply two wheeler vehicles as the road is knee deep in mud at many places.
He also stressed the need for constriction of culverts and proper drainage system along the road to avoid water logging.
