GUWAHATI: The Arunachal Pradesh government has promised a bridge after the people of Rime Moko, Pidi Rime, and Tode Rime villages in the West Siang district threatened to boycott the 2024 Assembly election.
The government also assured a bonus – an all-weather road making travel between the three villages and the world beyond faster.
A week ago, the villagers got together and decided to boycott the Assembly and Lok Sabha polls next year if the government failed to construct a permanent bridge over the Hijum, a tributary of the Pisam.
