Imphal, June 05 2024:
Assam Rifles helped clear a blockage along the Naga River, a vital waterway in Laipham Khunou, Imphal East district on Wednesday.
According to PRO IGAR (S), Naga River, a lifeline for residents in the region, had been clogged with debris and plants, exacerbating flood risks and disrupting the local ecosystem.
Assam Rifles, in coordination with state authorities, initiated a comprehensive plan to remove the blockage and restore uninterrupted flow in the waterway.
The operation was carried out in adherence to environmental standards by employing innovative techniques to minimise disruption to surrounding ecosystems.
Use of boats from Assam Rifles and JCB from state authorities resulted in the clearance of sizeable debris and aquatic vegetation in the river.
