“Teachers from other places refuse to come and teach in our schools due to the lack of basic facitilities” a protestor said.
“We want the minister to know that the public will not bear up to such atrocities and the lax attitude of the government will no longer be tolerated,” another protestor said.
The constituency is in serious need of a bridge as the bamboo bridge that is built over the river was washed away during the turbulent monsoon floods. This poses a serious problem for the village as normal day to day activities come to a standstill and is completely cut off from the rest of the state.
