Guwahati: A devastating landslide in the Mompani area of Anjaw district in Arunachal Pradesh has brought transportation to a halt, including the movement of army convoys along the India-China border. The disruption has severe implications for the region, which is critical to national security.
The landslide has destroyed around 10 meters of the road, a lifeline for both the local population and security forces guarding the Line of Actual Control (LAC). The damage is extensive, and officials are warning that restoration work may take some time, as the administration will need to acquire additional land for the purpose.
This comes after Deputy Commissioner Millo Kojin issued a traffic advisory on Tuesday, warning commuters about the deteriorating condition of the highway, following reports from the National Highways and Infrastructure Development Corporation (NHIDCL) regarding the severe damage. The authorities are now working on immediate plans to restore connectivity and ensure the smooth movement of traffic to this critical region.
The disruption has significant implications for the army convoy movement in the region. The convoys, which were en route to destinations like Walong and Kibithu, have come to a halt. The delay is likely to have far-reaching consequences, not only for the security forces but also for the local population.
Despite the challenges, authorities are working tirelessly to restore connectivity and ensure the smooth movement of traffic to this critical region. The incident serves as a stark reminder of the risks and challenges faced by those working in one of the most remote and vulnerable regions of the country.
The incident has sent shockwaves across the region, with officials and experts calling for immediate action to restore connectivity and ensure the smooth movement of traffic to this critical region. As the situation evolves, one thing is clear: the integrity of the Line of Actual Control is at stake, and swift action is needed to mitigate the impact of this devastating landslide.
