Arunachal Minister Requests Central Government to Transfer Strategic Road Project to BRO

Kento Jini stated that the road in question was initially constructed and maintained by the Border Roads Organisation (BRO). In 2014-2015, the management of the road was transferred to the National Highways and Infrastructure Development Corporation Limited (NHIDCL).

The BRO is responsible for developing and maintaining road networks in border areas to enhance connectivity and national security. The NHIDCL, established in 2014, focuses on the development of national highways and infrastructure in strategically important regions. The transfer of management responsibilities often reflects shifts in governmental strategy concerning infrastructure development and regional connectivity, particularly in remote and sensitive areas. Further information regarding the current status or condition of the road, as well as any ongoing maintenance or upgrades by the NHIDCL, was not provided and may require further inquiry.
