East Siang Deputy Commissioner Nidhi Srivastava convened an emergency meeting at

Pasighat yesterday w hich w as attended by SP Pushpendra Kumar and other departmental

heads and discussed about availability of relief materials and flood preparedness,

sources said.

As a precautionary measure, the DC asked the people residing in lowlying areas

A report from Tezu, the headquarters of Lohit district informed that surface communication

Tohangam along TezuParsuram Kund road.

This particular point remains prone to mudslides and is basis of hurdle f or our labourers

to clear the road. This point is so r isky that even our machineries find tough to w ork,

informed PK Gupta, OC 1446 Border Construction Company, Demwe.

Putting their lives at r isk, our personnel have been pressed into roundtheclock work to

make the road through. But regrettably, w e lost one ML Sharma, mechanic incharge, w ho

untraceable, the OC lamented.

He said that a team has been assigned to trace out the body but unfortunately, inclement
