Ghokuto village has been isolated from other places as the 8km stretch of road, which connects the village to Nihokhu EAC headquarters, remained blocked by landslides. In a press release, village head GB, G. Shikavi Zhimo, has urged the PWD (R&B) to look into the dire situation faced by the villagers. He said that the villagers were compelled to carry the sick people and trek down the hilly terrain to avail medical treatment. He said even students were made to walk through long and steep footpath to attend schools and colleges. Zhimo stated that the construction of the said road under PMGSY, which began July 17, 2012 as commencement date, was to be completed within 5 years time. However, till date the road has not been completed nor the work executed as per the specification, he said. In this regard, GB said the village wrote to chief engineer PWD (R&B) on May 5, 2015, but so far the department had not taken any initiative. Further, he stated that the village on its own had tried its best to maintain the road by deploying villagers funded by the village council. However, GB said the condition of the road had gone from bad to worse that the village authority was no more in a position to tackle the situation. Therefore, the village has once again requested the intervention of the concerned department. Meanwhile, the village has appealed to the responsible department not to release payment or security deposit to the contractor without the consent of the village.
