DIMAPUR, JANUARY 18 (MExN): With the road of Naginimora town remaining neglected for the past twenty years with not a single maintenance in record, the Konyak Union, Naginimora Unit has announced that it would not wait anymore for the concerned department or the state government to repair the road and would therefore construct it themselves.
In a press statement, the Konyak Union, Naginimora Unit said since the last 20 years, the road of Naginimora town has been neglected without even a single maintenance even after repeated appeals and submission of number of memorandums on the issue.
This is despite the fact that the people of Naginimora have been contributing huge amount of revenue to the state government for more than 20 years, it claimed.
While pointing out that it is the fundamental right of the citizen to have better roads, the Konyak Union said the problem of the pathetic and deplorable road condition in Naginimora town has reached its extreme and people were not going to take it lying down anymore.
Taking this into account, the general public of Naginimora town held a public meeting and decided to construct the road through contribution by the private business community with estimated budget of Rs 3,61,00000/- (Three crore sixty one lakhs).
A core committee for town road construction has been set up with L. Methlow Konyak, president of Konyak Union Naginimora Unit as its convenor, N Khampei Konyak as secretary and sixteen person from different walks of life as members.
Since the road construction is being initiated through private contribution, the Konyak Union Naginimora Unit has directed all the government departments not to exercise their “rules and regulations at their check gate for two years, ie, (2019 to 2021)” which it said is a form of agitation against the government for not constructing the road despite repeated appeals and submission of memorandum.
