Dimapur, Nov 17 (EMN): Concern over present state of road condition in Kohima district, a delegation of Angami Youth Organisation (AYO) and Angami Students’ Union (ASU) called on the State chief minister, TR Zeliang, at his residential office on November 16 and urged him to initiate immediate action on war-footing.
The delegation led by AYO president, Neinguvotuo Krose, and ASU president, Visako Rino, submitted a joint representation and briefed the chief minister about the pathetic condition of the roads in and around Kohima town and all its adjacent routes.
“The approaching State Hornbill festival and the festive seasons will very soon witness the flow of outside visitors both domestic and international. It is very embarrassing that routes between Kohima to Kisema and Kohima to Zubza River do not even deserve to be called roads and in addition to this, all roads leading to various colonies are self-explanatory by their condition,” a CMO press release said quoting the representation.
The delegation expressed confidence that the government would mitigate the deplorable condition before the onset of next summer season.
They pointed out that the unprecedented natural disasters this year had resulted in a massive destruction. “Mudslides and landslides played havoc to all our roads both on State and National Highways and now with the dry season, measures must be activated to improve our roads because if it is ignored again, we would continue to suffer endlessly,” the representation pointed out.
After patience hearing, the chief minister discussed with the delegation on series of developmental activities being implemented in the State. He explained about the ongoing building of road connectivity, problems of traffic congestion, Kohima Smart City, and preparation for the upcoming Hornbill Festival.
The chief minister has, meanwhile, sought constructive suggestions and cooperation from the delegation towards the efforts.
