MLA tours landslide affected places of Yuksam-Tashiding


GYALSHING, 03 July: Yuksam-Tashiding MLA, Sonam Dadul Bhutia, visited the various landslide affected areas of the constituency on Wednesday and Thursday. The MLA reached every landslide affected home in his constituency and assessed the scale of damage suffered.
The monsoon arrived only a few weeks back, and the severity of the rains of the past few days has been intense and damaging. Already, reports of damage to cardamom plantations and maize fields have begun coming in.
Over the two days, the MLA toured Chong, Tingting, Thingling and Khecheopalri areas. He reassured the affected families that the government was aware of the losses suffered by them and would arrange ex-gratia payments and all other assistance to help them recover.
