Tengnoupal, April 26 2023:
Amid the ongoing row of pitiable condition of road repairing work under Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY) scheme across the State, another issue of wearing out of black topping of road from Saibol till Moirengthel in Tengnoupal has come up.
It may be noted that this particular stretch of road was recently repaired under the PMGSY Scheme.
A team of media persons and former candidate from Tengnoupal AC, TK Mosilpha came across the irregularities while inspecting the ongoing road construction and repairing work.
Expressing discontent over the construction work carried out without quality control, TK Mosilpha said "The construction of 17 kilometre long road from Saibol till Moirengthel taken up under PMGSY was to be completed in February 2021 however the same is still pending which is really unfortunate" .

Though the work was pending for a long time, the villagers were contented to see the starting of black topping of this road but the mode of work and progress is disappointing, he added.
Alleging that quality has not been maintained while taking up the black topping work, he appealed to the authorities concerned to probe the matter and ensure that quality is maintained and the works are implemented effectively in the interest of the suffering villagers.
Further he urged to ramp up the road construction work so as to complete it before the monsoon season in the interest of the villagers.
