The Chief Minister of Arunachal Pradesh – Pema Khandu has inspected the status of under-construction Jang to Mago Road in Tawang District.
Constructed under the Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY), this 23-kms-long strategic road will reduce journey to Tulung La Pass along the Indo-Tibet border, located at around 17,600 feet above the sea level; and boost tourism to Mago Village – “treasure house of hot springs”.
It will be of utmost significance for the defence personnel, as the stretch will support military movement near the Line of Actual Control (LAC); maintaining a strict vigil on the Chinese troops.
According to the video posted by the Arunachal CM, just 3 kms section of the stretch is left for formation cutting.
Taking to Twitter, the Arunachal Pradesh CM wrote “Trekked to see status of under construction Jang to Mago Road. The road is strategic as it will cut short distance to Tulung La Pass on border of Tibet-China as well as boost tourism to Mago – treasure house of hot springs. Don’t miss a chance to visit Mago & take a hot bath.”
