Kiphire, June 23 (MExN): With no help coming from the government, hundreds of concerned Pungro citizens came out to repair the LHEP road under the aegis of various civil based organisations of Pungro spearheaded by the Public Forum Pungro Sub-division (PFPS) for two weeks since June 8, according to a press release from S Kiusumew Yimchunger, president, PFPS.
The LHEP road stretching 22 km, the release pointed out, has been regularly maintained by the public of Pungro for the past several years.
With the onset of monsoon, the road has been severely damaged in several locations causing untold hardships to the commuters, it added. Stating that a representation and press releases were issued on several occasions highlighting the plight of the people, the PFPS president lamented that despite the pleas, the successive governments have paid no heed regarding the road.
“Having left with no option, PFPS raised fund from various organisations and well wishers for the maintenance of road,” the release added.
