Landslides in Arunachal’s Tawang, BRO clears roads

ITANAGAR: Heavy rain-triggered landslides were reported near Jang town in Arunachal Pradesh’s Tawang district, blocking key stretches of the strategic Balipara-Charduar-Tawang (BCT) road, a critical supply line to the frontier areas.

However, the Border Roads Organisation (BRO) restored traffic movement by Wednesday midnight, ensuring uninterrupted movement of military convoys and essential supplies, a Defence spokesperson said on Thursday.
