Naga IAS officer builds 100-km road in Manipur without govt help

[Norboo]

U don't know these fcuking bureaucrats.. since money was already issued once for this road, they might not issue funds under MNREGA

Most such government schemes in the North East have been completed on paper only. The money has gone into the deep pockets of the bloody politicians and bureaucrats! The road cannot be made 'again' as it has already 'been constructed'!!!

NEW DELHI: Nagaland IAS officer Armstrong Pame's initiative to build a 100-km state highway in Manipur involving the local community has generated huge interest among alumni of St Stephen's College.

Manipur PWD secretary Ram Muivah told TOI that he and other senior state government functionaries were receiving calls from several former students of the college asking whether the project was completed and how they could contribute. Pame is a former student of St Stephen's.

"This step by Pame has been welcomed by all. The link (known as Tamenglong-Haflong road) will prove crucial for locals here, though it's a kuchcha road. Some work had happened on this stretch long back, but was stopped after there were issues relating to its alignment," Muivah told TOI.

Once completed, this road will link Manipur with Nagaland and Assam.

Sources said besides financial help from people from across the country, the IAS officer played a key role to convince authorities to utilise NREGS fund to clear this state highway, which is usually used for construction of rural roads and other works in villages.
