VERGAON, Nov 11: The foundation stone was laid for an ICBP road connecting Khagrabari with the Vergaon PWD road via Majgaon Bhatau Mandir under the SOPD-BTC scheme for the 2026-27 financial year.
Retired teacher Nareswar Boro formally laid the foundation stone and inaugurated the construction work at a programme organised on the initiative of Vergaon TCLCC chairman Mahendra Basumatary.
The road had remained in a dilapidated condition for a long time, causing difficulties for local residents. Students and other residents also faced problems travelling through the area.
It was hoped that the road construction would help address the area's long-standing connectivity problems.
Villagers welcomed the initiative and thanked Basumatary. He assured them that more development works would be taken up in the area in the coming days.
