Kohima, June 16 (MExN): The Village Development Board (VDB) Zhadima Village has undertaken a road repairing work along Kohima-Bokajan NEC road via Zhadima 10th IRB (NAP) Battalion, Assam Rifles outpost Ziezou, Phekerkriema, Tsosunyu, Ghutovi, Niuland and Dimapur, the only alternate road between Kohima-Dimapur.
Zhadima VDB Secretary Roko Angami stated that the state PWD department has neglected this most vital road between Kohima and Dimapur for many years. In this, he said, the villagers were compelled to repair the road on regular basis on their own expenses. He stated that the villagers are even planning to raise funds among themselves for repairing and maintenance related works on this important route for the general public.
The VDB secretary lamented that the PWD department was not attentive to the repeated request of the villagers towards maintenance of this road. He urged upon the concerned department to take up the matter with urgency and see that Kohima-Bokajan NEC road is maintained to the fullest.
Presently, Kohima-Dimapur four lane road constructions is going on and commuters are facing hardship to ply along such bad road condition.
