In Nagaland, over 200 top technocrats from across the country have gathered in Kohima to attend two day Indian Roads Congress (IRC). The aim of the meeting is to find out technical solutions to deal with heavy monsoon, rainfall and challenges of landslides on hill roads of the northeastern region.
Addressing the inaugural session of the 197th Mid Term Council of the Indian Roads Congress, Nagaland Chief Minister Neiphiu Rio stressed on the need to evolve state specific norms for road construction especially in the north east. He said norms for road construction applicable in the mainland cannot be implemented in the northeast as the region has unstable soil and experience high rainfall.
