Arunachal Speaker Urges BRO for Highway Expansion

Arunachal Pradesh Speaker Pasang Dorjee Sona has urged the Border Roads Organisation (BRO) to expedite the construction of a double-lane highway in Shi Yomi district. The speaker emphasized the significance of the highway's expansion for enhancing connectivity and fostering development in the region.

Sona's plea comes amidst the region's aspirations for improved infrastructure and connectivity, essential for economic growth and social development. With Shi Yomi district being one of the remotest regions in Arunachal Pradesh, efficient road networks are pivotal for bolstering accessibility and integrating the area with the rest of the state.

The proposed double-lane highway holds immense promise for transforming transportation dynamics in Shi Yomi and neighbouring areas. It is anticipated to not only facilitate smoother movement of goods and people but also attract investments, spur economic activities, and uplift livelihoods.

The Arunachal Pradesh Speaker stressed that the timely completion of the highway project is crucial for realising the developmental aspirations of the local populace. He highlighted the need for the BRO to expedite construction efforts, ensuring that the project adheres to scheduled timelines without compromising on quality standards.

Moreover, Sona reiterated the government's commitment to prioritising infrastructure development in remote and border areas to bridge the urban-rural divide. He urged all stakeholders, including the BRO and local authorities, to collaborate closely to overcome challenges and expedite the highway's construction.

The call for expediting the double-lane highway project in Shi Yomi district underscores the region's quest for inclusive growth and development. Improved connectivity through robust infrastructure is pivotal for unlocking the region's socio-economic potential and fostering prosperity.

In conclusion, Arunachal Pradesh Speaker Pasang Dorjee Sona's plea to the BRO reflects the collective aspiration of the region's residents for accelerated infrastructure development. The timely completion of the double-lane highway holds the promise of ushering in a new era of progress and prosperity for Shi Yomi and its adjoining areas.
