Imphal, December 28 2015:
4 Assam of 26 Sector Assam Rifles under the aegis of HQ IGAR (South) played facilitating role in rebuilding and relocating Chalong village to its new location, according to a statement issued by the PRO of IGAR (S) .
During the recent cataclysmic monsoon rains and flood, Chalong village got partially washed away due to landslide.
The 4 Assam Battalion extended the much needed healing touch to the marooned villagers by providing basic amenities, tentages, constructing adhoc shelters and also assisting the villagers in transportation of their personal stores and construction materials.
Soldiers also distributed sweets to the children, gave sympathetic hearing to the elders and medicines for the ailing, it said.
