CCpur, May 07 2022:
Construction work of NH 102B (Guite Road) package 1A and 1B which was halted about a month back by the Affected Chiefs Association and Zomi CSOs will resume tomorrow after the two parties managed to ink an MoU today.
The road construction work which was in its crucial stage was abruptly halted over non-payment of supplementary compensation of about 3 crores.
As the local administration along with several stakeholders made efforts to settle the issue, the two parties today agreed that the case of supplementary compensation should be finalized and dispensed on or before May 31, 2022 .
Sources said the acquiring agency, New Delhi headquartered NHIDCL with its regional office at Imphal, will need to take priority to approve and sanction the compensation so that a similar stand-off which brought crucial construction works to a grinding halt may not be repeated.
