Agartala, October 3: Villagers of East Chawmanu Debendra Karbari Para blocked the main road from Chawmanu to Manu in Longtraivalley sub-division this morning in protest demanding drinking water and road renovation.
Allegedly, the supply of drinking water in East Chawmanu Debendra Karbari neighborhood has been stopped for a long time. As a result, the villagers are facing various problems on a daily basis. Although the government has been informed about this issue several times, they have not paid any heed. Moreover, the road in East Chawmanu Debendra Karbari Para is in a very bad condition. Due to the bad condition of the roads, there is no provision of ambulance to go to the hospital even though the unconscious patients are fighting with death. Students have to stop moving and stay at home in the slightest rain.
Finally, this morning they sat on the road blockade. On getting the news, the high-ranking officials of the procession rushed to the spot. They spoke to the blockaders and assured that the problem would be solved very soon. Based on that assurance, they withdrew the road blockade.
