WINTER SLUDGE!


This lonely, off-season patch of sludge has not only become an eyesore, but vehicles commuting along this route in Bojoghari near the Shiv Mandir which falls under the Gangtok Municipal Corporation also come out sore after they struggle their way across it. A ‘temporary arrangement’ for making ‘masala’ used in road construction was set up here almost 6 months ago but work has been stalled for the past month or so. This arrangement had roughed up the patch of road here and workers were seeing to it that the road was motorable, however, with the work stalled and no workers in sight, the condition of the road has worsened. Small cars are now getting stuck at the spot on a routine basis and have to be pushed out of the sludge. A leak in a water source at the spot has made matters worse. Meanwhile, construction material and equipment lie abandoned at the spot now.
