Foreigners creating problems in Assam : Nitin Gadkare

Imphal, August 23 NNN: Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) national president Nitin Gadkari on Thursday said the violent clashes in the state of Assam were not between the Hindus and Muslims but between the people of Indian origin and people of foreign origin.
BJP president Gadkari arrived in Imphal in the afternoon in a one-day visit to the state. He was speaking at the function of “Grand Reception of New Leaders, BJP, Manipur Pradesh” organised by the state BJP at the auditorium of Manipur Film Development Corporation, Palace Compound here.
Taking a dig at Congress party, the saffron party chief accused the Congress of issuing election cards to the Bangladeshi migrants living in Northeast.He said the Assam violence is not between the Hindus and Muslims but between the people of Indian origin and foreign origin.
Gadkari termed the death of Sarif Ahmad, a Manipur student of Cotton College, Guahati as ‘unfortunate’ assuring that the BJP will put up the incident in both the Houses of Parliament which is now in session.
Hailing the common mission and objective of BJP, Gadkari said the mission of the party does not aim on becoming or making prime minister, MP and MLA but to continue the war for the people of the society and socio-economic transformation in the country.
“The party does not discriminate on the grounds of caste, creed, religion and sex,” the BJP national president maintained, adding its politics is not based on such things.

Pot holes on the road

All the roads passing through the state of Manipur are important. Some are in tip top condition some others in precarious condition. It seems there is nobody to take care of these roads. Uripok Polem Leikai road is one such road that is kept neglected for several years. This tiny road serves as a link road, which carries out a big traffic volume. Now this road is in a pitiable condition. It seems there is none to take care of this road, which is filled with potholes. The local people have not even thought of complaining about the deplorable condition of the road to the competent authority. Traffic jam occurs every day in this small lane as too many buses and trucks ply on the narrow road. Then there are school vans and other vehicles of different kind which use this road every day. Amazingly the concerned authority has relegated the importance of the road to nothingness. The bridge connecting the road with Sagolband Vijaygovinda road was upgraded from wooden to pucca some time back. But on the Northern side of the bridge just at the spot where the bridge connects with the road a depression has occurred. The depth of the depression increases daily due to passing of heavy vehicles making the vehicles having low ground clearance unable to cross the depressed portion. As the vehicles attempt to move on higher patch traffic jam has become a routine affair. One or two truckloads of gravel will solve this problem. What is required is inspection by an engineer of the department. When the connecting portion gets depressed the impact of the moving vehicle is taken by the bridge. This will shorten the life span of the bridge. A bridge that should last 50 years or more will collapse within 20 years. Therefore we have been telling again and again to create some posts of engineers whose sole responsibility should be to point out where the pot holes have appeared. Pot hole is a big problem. PWD Minister of Uttar Pradesh landed in quagmire for telling he would bury engineers at the spot where pot holes have appeared. In Manipur too that there had been Ministers, who talked of pot holes only. They did not talk about big projects. They are the real man they feel the gravity of the situation what makes the users uncomfortable. These days our Ministers have not talked about pot holes. Talking about projects worth millions of rupees has become fashionable. Pot hole has vanished from the vocabulary of higher ups. Pot hole has become topic for small fry? Similar roads which do yeomen’s job yet neglected are at Sagolband Sayang road. The road connecting Kwakeithel and Sayang road also needs to be widened. Too many trucks and buses ply on this narrow road. This road is also filled with pot holes. Our sincere appeal to the Ministers is do not feel ashamed of talking about pot holes. All these roads can be made usable by filling up the pot holes. Let us see what comes out after filling pot holes.
