In Dimapur two important bridges were opened to traffic on December 21. Deputy Chief Minister Y Patton inaugurated the bridges over the Chathe at Diphupar, 4th Mile, connecting NH 29 with Niuland and one over the Dhansiri at Kuda village (formerly known as Full Nagarjan).
The construction of the two new bridges started in October 2017.
Patton, who holds charge of the Roads & Bridges Department, said the bridges hold great significance.
The bridges were insisted to be opened to traffic before Christmas by Chief Minister Neiphiu Rio.
