Mizoram Highway Repairs Conclude, Fuel Supply Expected to Normalize
Truckers in Mizoram fixed a damaged part of a main road (NH-6) to make it safe for trucks.
This road is super important for bringing in supplies.
The repairs stopped trucks from bringing fuel and other goods, causing a shortage of fuel.
The truckers had to fix the road themselves because the government didn't do it.
Now, trucks are running again, and fuel should be easier to find.
Trucks resumed plying on NH-6 in Mizoram after six days of repair work.
The Mizoram Tipper Association (MTA) repaired the damaged Sairang-Kawnpui sector of NH-6.
The repairs, conducted between June 26 and June 30, halted essential commodity transport.
Fuel shortage occurred due to the road closure.
MTA stated they took on repairs due to government inaction.
