Dimapur, June 27 (MExN): The Kiphire incident brought in its wake a plethora of miseries for the Yimchungru populace when they were denied easy access to their daily sustenance. A grueling trek of 7-8 hours to Shamator for basic amenities is the price these hapless people had to pay.
Representing the ‘Road Construction Organiser’ S. Keoshu and Kejingkhum in a press release said that to alleviate these hardships, the people of three villages, namely Thsuthu, Pungrungru and Huhdangru got their heads together and came up with the idea of building the Tsuthu- Pungrungru-Huhdangru-Rurru- Shipongru road without waiting for Government aid and effort.
The arduous stretch of 15 km is all but half done. The 5 km stretch road constructed so far has been possible with the generous aid from voluntary contributions from well wishers and also from the people who have largely been sensitized through the social media platforms like Facebook and Whatsapp group.
The organisers informed that once completed, “this road will not only restore comforts that will touch the life of many in the area, but will also show to the world how determined the people are to restore peace and harmony in the region, only hope and pray that the goodness and humanitarian sentiments behind this initiative is visible to one and all.”
Further, seeking support and assistance, the organisers further added that a portrayal of the triumph of the villagers in need of roads resolve and this initiative awaits assistance for more and well wishers to help.
