Dimapur, September 13 (MExN): Highlighting the untold misery and hardship faced by students after the collapse of Chathe River Bridge which connects many schools and colleges, the Naga United Village Students’ Union (NUVSU) stated that every day nursery to college going students have to wait in the sun and cross the bridge for their education.
NUVSU Dimapur, president, Pole Venyo in a press release issued ‘on behalf of the students’ said that an estimation of around 3000-4000 people crosses the hanging bridge every day.
