AGARTALA, July 23 (TIWN): Poor connectivity plagues remote Jampui Hill, Kanchanpur sub division , a potential tourist spot in North Tripura which has unique features.

Long distance from the state capital coupled with hazardous road condition deters the tourists from flocking the border hill station. Jampui has some exotic locations like the highest mountain peak of the state, which can be an attraction for any visitor.

State government recently constructed a tourist lodge spending crores of money, but the residents say that there is hardly any takers as the visitors are far and few.
The scenic place has the potential to be developed as a favourite destination of tourist, but the tourists usually do not prefer to visit the place as they have to travel the long 45 km  of uneven and hazardous road.
There are broken roads right from Kanchanpur sub division till Fooldangsai. Moreover, the roads are so narrow that it becomes risky for vehicles to cross.
Besides, there is no retention wall on the side of the road to prevent vehicles from falling into deep gorges in case of an accident.  Another nightmare for the commuters is the weak wooden bridges which can collapse any time.
Jampui hill deserves  a good road since the area shares an international border with neighbouring Bangladesh and if a proper road comes up, it would be of tremendous help for the people of Jampui as well as the BSF, the villagers said.
