Tengnoupal, March 07 2019:
Disappointed with the failure of the Government and authorities concerned to renovate and reconstruct the dilapidated road in TL Haijang village in Tengnoupal district, the villagers took up the responsibility and have started repairing the road themselves.
The road side was excavated in the year 2014-15 for installation of underground cables and they left without cleaning the mess, said the locals.
"Minister and MLA have visited and inspected the road in the past but without any result.
As we could not wait any longer, we started contributing money and began the repairing work by hiring a JCB," said village Chief Thangjangam Luphao.
The road is vital for many villages in the region.
Men, women and children are taking part in repairing the road.
