Imphal, June 11 2009:
Works Minister K Ranjit today inspected construction work of the RCC bridge being built over Nambul river at Samurou Makha Leikai.
The Minister was accompanied by PWD Chief Engineer and other officials.
Though construction of the bridge started in 2004 from State plan fund, it was abandoned before construction work was re-initiated under Special Plan Assistance for 2009-10 at the cost of Rs 1.5 crore.
Interacting with the local people, K Ranjit assured that the bridge would be inaugurated and handed over to public within July, provided there is no hindrance from any quarter.
The team led by K Ranjit also visited the spot where an RCC bridge is proposed to be built over Heibirok river at Longa Koireng under Saitu Assembly constituency.
