When questioned for the several developmental works coming up just when the assembly election is due next year as often questioned by several sections of people, especially his opponent parties, MLA Kaling Moyong clarified that there is nothing like that. “Developmental process is a part of a continuous chain and there is no such attempt to woo the voters when the election nears.
In fact, I have been trying my best to bring more and more developments in the area and I am thankful to Chief Minister, Pema Khandu for his support who sanctioned funds for the much needed modern day auditorium for the state’s oldest and premier college, JNC which was established way back in 1964.
This auditorium of 500 seating capacity with acoustic, audio visual, fire fighting, air conditioning, electrical, water supply and sanitary facilities once completed will be useful not only for JNC, but also for all other state programmes, as presently the auditorium of College of Horticulture & Forestry, Pasighat, CAU Imphal is catering the auditorium needs of the district”, said Moyong. He also hinted for early laying of foundations for more developmental works like the 300 bedded hospital in Bakin Pertin General Hospital, Pasighat and rejuvenation of Town Club etc.
Meanwhile, East Siang Dy. Commissioner, Tayi Taggu said that such developmental works here in the district were much needed especially in the context of Pasighat being a Smart city today. “East Siang district administration is having all the cordial good relations and cooperation with the Pasighat East MLA and every effort is being made from the district administration to support and pave ways for more development in Pasighat”, added Taggu.
While on the part of executing agency PWD, its EE, Tani Taki informed that the project was sanctioned vide No. PWD-12011/218/2022-Work-PWD/815 Dtd. 16/03/2022 with tendered amount of Rs. 9.20 Crore and the work was awarded to M/s Sedi Allied Agency, Pasighat with an award amount of Rs. 8.67 Crore.
