Thoubal, May 15 2019:
The construction of road along Yairipok to Sikhong Sekmai, which was recently started after prolonged hardships faced by the locals and repeated appeals and protest to repair the said road, has halted midway at Pechi.
Joint Committee On People's Welfare yairipok (JCPWY) joint secretary Sanjoy Hidam stated that the work stopped a month ago.
The construction started from Yairipok Bazar and stopped at Pechi while the remaining portion from Pechi till Sekmai is still in a poor condition, he maintained.
Even though the locals had hoped to commute on a dust free and black topped road, the halting of work midway has not made the people happy as the monsoon is approaching and the road is still in the original state.
Sanjoy urged the authority concerned to look into the matter and complete the construction work at the earliest before the rainy season.
