Dimapur, April 26 (MExN): The Dhansiri River Flood Control Board (DRFCB) has stated in a press release that the board examined “an area operation at Dhansiri River tributaries” on April 14 and found the ongoing embankment development works unsatisfactory. It alleged that either the department concerned is not giving proper direction or the contractors are not taking up the works properly. Therefore, the board urged the authorities concerned to inspect the work and reconstruct the embankment wherever it is required. The board also expressed, “If the work is not satisfactory, government should not pass the bill.”
Meanwhile, the DRFCB requested the government “to release the running bill to the contractors immediately for the completion of ongoing works as early as possible before the monsoon season hampers the works.”
The board also observed that the embankment work is more productive under the leadership of Vekheho Swu, Parliamentary Secretary, Irrigation & Flood Control. The release was issued by DRFCB Secretary Mukibur Rahiman, Vice-Chairman P. Hekuto Wotsa, and Chairman Hokheto Kiba.
