AGARTALA, June 8 (TIWN): With the formation of the BJP govt. for the first time in Assam, people of Tripura can expect new dimension of development in the transport system with the renovation of the NH-44. Expressing concern, BJP state president Biplab Deb said that good news for the people of Tripura as Assam government led by BJP has taken the imitative for the renovation of the NH-44 especially in the Lowerpoa section as early as possible. Talking to media on Wednesday, BJP state president Biplab Deb said that he had a conversation with the PWD minister of Assam government Parimal Baidya over past few days and Minister Baidya has expressed concerned over the poor condition of the NH-44 over past few years. Deb further said that Assam’s PWD minister has taken the initiative for the renovation of the road and the work will begin soon in the Lowerpoa section of the NH-44. With the initiative of the BJP govt. at Assam, development has now begun in true sense. So far congress in Assam in collaboration with CPI-M in Tripura has denied the development of the transport system of the state creating problem for the common people, said Biplab Deb.
It is to be mentioned here that after passage of almost 3 years, for the first time with the initiative of BJP government Highway roads commissioner PC Bora along with others visited the NH 44 road few days back between Lowerpoa to Churaebari (upto Tripura entrance) section to take a note of the status of the road which has turned miserable for movement of vehicles over past 3 years.
Finally, with the initiative of BJP government, for the first time Highway roads commissioner PC Bora along with others visited the NH 44 road between Lowerpoa to Churaebari to inspect the status of the roads.
Highway roads commissioner PC Bora expressed displeasure over the poor condition of the road and said that it is due to poor structure of the construction work of the road which has lead to such deplorable condition of NH44. He also said new Construction Company is engaged for the renovation of the roads and the work will begin soon. It was due to the negligence of the previous construction company which has turned NH44 a death prone zone.
It is to be mentioned here that NH44 is in poor condition for past three consecutive weeks and this landslide has added much more problem. The NH has literally turned into a paddy field as the black top has been washed away in torrential rain and which has totally ceased movement of vehicle entering and moving out of Tripura.
National highway 44 is one such road which gets worsened even for small rains. The condition of the road deteriorated due to heavy rains. As it is the only highway which connects Tripura with the rest of the country, the transport completely blocked.
Thousands of vehicles stranded at Assam’s Lowerpoah area as the Assam-Agartala national highway virtually turned into paddy field due to heavy monsoon since April.
