The newly formed government led by Chief Minister Y. Khemchand has begun significant infrastructure development in the state, allocating ₹5 crore per constituency for road connectivity improvements. Newly constructed roads using paver block technology near the Multipurpose Hall at Kakching Mayai Leikai were recently inspected by MLA M. Rameshwar, who emphasized the government’s priority on road development and quality assurance. Roads are designed to last 7 to 10 years, with waterlogging-prone areas being enhanced through this modern construction method. The AMRUT 2.0 scheme is facilitating pipeline installation for improved water supply, with overhead tanks planned where gravity supply is insufficient. New road projects in areas like Irengband, Sora, and Pallel are underway under the Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana, along with a ₹7 crore project submitted for the Central Road and Infrastructure Fund.
In a separate report, a tragic road accident on NH 102 claimed the life of Md. Sahir Khan (22) and injured two others—Md. Jorman (35) and Md. Farid (19)—following a collision between a Tata vehicle and a Honda Activa. The deceased’s body has been sent for post-mortem, while the injured are being treated.
Additionally, the National Investigation Agency (NIA) filed charges against three members of the People’s Liberation Army (PLA) for a 2025 attack on an Assam truck that resulted in the deaths of two paramilitary personnel and injuries to five others, under various legal provisions.
