Itanagar, Aug 19: Landslides triggered by incessant rains in the past couple of days have snapped road links to several Arunachal Pradesh districts.
Continuous landslides have blocked a portion of the Akajan-Likabali-Aalo road at Siji in Lower Siang district. Several vehicles have remained stranded for the past couple of days, a district official said today. Though the MSV International Inc, the company constructing the Trans Arunachal Highway (TAH) portion of the road (package I&II), has deployed men and machinery to clear the blockade, continuous rain has hampered restoration work as landslides continued to occur, Lower Siang DC Marto Riba said.
