Speaking to this daily, Rebia stated, “I have visited most parts of the PMGSY road from Kampo (NIT) to Tapiaso. The progress of the work is not up to my satisfaction based on what I observed.”
Highlighting a major concern, he said, “The absence of a proper bridge over the Rikso River is a serious issue. Locals are currently using a temporary bridge for two-wheelers. If a permanent bridge is not constructed, the last village in the area, Lao, will remain cut off.”
He further urged the Rural Works Department (RWD) to ensure thorough verification of the work and its quality before releasing any payments.
