Imphal, May 29 2022:
Wangoi MLA Kh Loken along with PWD chief engineer Kh Temba, other officials of PWD, PMGSY and work agencies inspected condition of different roads in Wangoi assembly constituency on Sunday.
Expressing dissatisfaction over the poor condition of the roads, many of which were renovated recently, the MLA urged the public to monitor road renovation projects to ensure maintenance of work quality.
Rapid degradation of the newly renovated or repaired roads even when there is slight rainfall is clear evidence of sub-standard work, he said.
The MLA also expressed concern over leaving the PMGSY road projects incomplete and assured of repairing some of the worst roads in his constituency from his own source as an interim measure until the government releases the pending funds.
A road renovation project is being taken up in Mutum Phibou area with the thickness of two feet without waiting for the government to release the fund and it is nearing completion, Loken said.
He also urged the contractors to be sincere in taking up road projects to ensure that those roads last for longer period.
