Speaking at the meeting, Nitin Gadkari stated that Jiribam will soon have proper road and railway connectivity and added that Jiribam will begin to march towards sustainable development.
"The Government of India under Prime Minister Narendra Modi has been putting all possible effort to improve road and railway connectivity in the North East region.

After the completion of Makru and Barak bridge, Jiribam will have the best National Highway in the State, he said and added that BJP's aim while initiating the construction work of Makru and Barak bridge is to provide employment opportunities to local contractors and unemployed youth.
He further maintained that the authority concerned has been informed of the need to expedite the construction work.
As such, local people should also extend co-operation to make the project successful.
