The Border Roads Organisation (BRO) is all set to complete the world’s longest twin-lane road tunnel built above 13000 feet, in Arunachal Pradesh. The tunnel is called the Sela tunnel, which is situated above 13,000 ft, and this tunnel aims to aid the Indian army with faster deployments of weapons and soldiers to the forward Tawang areas by the end of September 2023. India is focused on developing the infrastructure of the new China border, says officials.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi laid the foundation of this Sela tunnel in February 2019. This tunnel is the government’s Rs 700 crore project based on the Balipara-Charduar-Tawang (BCT) road.
