Imphal, August 18 2021:
Troops of 44 Assam Rifles of 22 Sector/IGAR (East) cleared landslides on the Dikhuiram-Tamei road on Wednesday.
According to PIB (Defence) Imphal, the Dikhuram-Tamei road is vital for the far flung and inaccessible areas of Tamei sub-diyision of Tamenglong district which not only provides connectivity to Dikuiram village but also to several other neighbouring villages.
Consequent to landslides at three different stretches of the road leading to Tamei sub division headquarters, villagers approached 44 Assam Rifles for assistance and the troops swiftly went into action considering the gravity of the situation and cleared all the disrupted patches on road manually in four hours along with the villagers without any powered mechanical equipment, the PIB informed.
