Arunachal Pradesh State Minister for Urban Development, Kamlung Mosang, called on the Governor of Arunachal Pradesh Brig. (Dr.) B.D. Mishra (Retd.) at Raj Bhavan, Itanagar on Tuesday. The minister, who recently visited one of the remotest administrative centres of the State, Vijoynagar, briefed the Governor on the progress of various developmental works in the area.

The Governor, who has been closely monitoring the restoration of Miao-Vijoynagar (MV) Road emphasised that MV Road, which has been now taken up under ‘Pradhan Mantri Garmin Sadak Yojana’ must be implemented within the timeframe for the welfare of the people living in Vijoynagar, and for the conservation of treasured flora and fauna of world renowned Namdapha National Park and Tiger Reserve. “This road will be the lifeline for the people of the area as it also promotes tourism. It has huge National Security importance in the Eastern Arunachal Pradesh,” he said.

The Governor reiterated in the brief meeting that during the rain free months of November, December, January and February maximum work must be completed on constructing roads. Mishra further advised the minister to ensure adequate availability of basic commodities for far-flung places through proper monitoring and check. He suggested that BSNL and APEDA must pay special attention to such areas for providing communication and lighting facilities to them. The minister assured the Governor that proper implementation of work for the socio-economic development of the people will be carried out without any lapses.
