On 15th July 2023, the Advisor for Transport and Technical Education, Govt. of Nagaland, Temjenmenba, visited NH702D to inspect the deteriorated road condition and the ongoing work progress on this road. During his visit, the Advisor expressed concern about the deplorable condition of NH702D, as it serves as the lifeline connectivity for the districts of Mokokchung, Zunheboto, Tuensang, and adjoining districts. He emphasized that his visit aimed to highlight these grievances to higher authorities for early action.

Furthermore, the Advisor suggested that the District Administration seek assurance from neighboring villages for their assistance in finding a way forward for the welfare of the people. To ensure the smooth flow of essential commodities, the Advisor maintained that restrictions on heavy-duty vehicles should be strictly enforced until the road condition becomes temporarily motorable.

The Advisor was accompanied by DC Mokokchung, Thsievisie Phoji, Administrative Officers from PWD (NH), and council members from neighboring villages.
