The CM also laid the foundation stone for the construction of the balance work of Shaheed Nandachand RCC bridge over the Chiri river on Sibpur-Lakhipur road in Cachar, in a bid to improve connectivity.

He informed of it via Twitter, writing, “Ensuring proper connectivity is one of our topmost priorities. I was happy to be present at the inauguration of the balance work of Shaheed Nandachand RCC bridge over river Chiri on Sibpur-Lakhipur road in Cachar, which was stuck for a long time due to the expiry of the contractor”.

In a further tweet, he wrote, “To be completed within the stipulated time for the benefit of all, the project will include approach road and protection work under RIDF XXVII of NABARD, apart from the balance work of the main bridge. We will also install a statue of Shaheed Nandachand near the bridge”.
