CCpur, December 18 2020:
The Social and Economic Development Organization (SEDO) has resolved to resume repair work of SEDO road which is projected as an alternate road to connect the sub-divisional headquarters of Henglep to Churachandpur Town.
SEDO stated that they decided to resume the construction work considering the hardship faced by the people of Henglep area due to the absence of an all-weather road in the area.
The miserable conditions of the people in this area were recently highlighted when images of villagers carrying ailing patients or essential supplies to and from the area did rounds on social media and newspapers, said SEDO adding that the new road when conceived was envisaged to serve as an alternate road and also cutdown the existing distance between Henglep and Churachandpur Town (via Singmun Lamkhai) from 85 km to just 40 km .
SEDO then appealed to the State Government to transform the stretch into an all-weathered road at the earliest.
