Nagaland Baptist Church Council Youth Department (NBCCYD), the Baptist Youth of Nagaland, has expressed anguish over the deplorable road conditions in Nagaland and appealed to the state government to improve road conditions in the state
In an appeal to the Nagaland chief minister, NBCCYD president, K. Hekato Awomi, and NBCC youth secretary, Vikuo Rhi, said during the 32nd Annual Session of the department at Ahthibung recently, attended by 22 associations from all districts, the Baptist youth empathised with the government that in spite of resourcefulness, in terms of natural and human resources, the state remained underdeveloped.
“With this backdrop the Baptist Youth of Nagaland brings to you their deep-felt anguish over the state of affairs, with special reference to the deplorable conditions of roads in Nagaland,” the signatories said in the appeal to CM. The youth opined that the government must adopt a holistic approach that underscored the need for a road system, which guarantees maintenance, safety, liveability and a sense of community if all round development was be achieved.
With monsoon coming to an end, the Baptist youth said the whole state was left with potholes, mud and water stagnation on the roads making it tough for common motorists to drive.
