All the 11 villagers who donated their
agricultural lands for construction of the road
were also presented with gifts during the
programme.
It may be mentioned that the 1.5-km long
inter-village road was constructed by the
villagers without any assistance from the
State Government.

ing up developmental works without
depending on the Government is highly com-

added.
CNPO president Ws Kanral Anal said
that the people of Chothe tribe are
hardworking and generous people.
Appreciating the villagers who generously
donated their lands, he maintained that good
road connectivity is a must in order to bring
development.
