A<\/span>s the monsoon season approaches, authorities in Manipur<\/a> are sounding the alarm over the alarming rate of illegal encroachments along National Highway-02, which could lead to devastating floods and landslides. In a bid to address this pressing concern, a high-level inspection team, led by Senapati Deputy Magistrate Mamoni Doley, has been examining the stretch of the critical transportation corridor.<\/span><\/h4>\n

Urgent Measures to Combat Illegal Encroachments on National Highway-02 Ahead of Monsoon Season in Manipur<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The team, comprising officials from the Revenue Department, NHIDCL, IGGL, and ADM Mao Ningreingam Leisan, has identified areas where unauthorised structures are blocking drainage systems, posing a significant risk to the safety of commuters and local residents. Last year\u2019s heavy rains brought extensive damage to the region, and officials are determined to ensure that similar tragedies are avoided this season.<\/span><\/p>\n

“We have ordered a complete halt to all construction activities within 10 meters of the highway\u2019s right-of-way, storage of materials along the route, hill cutting that could trigger landslides, and any activities blocking drainage structures,” Deputy Magistrate Doley said. “Those found violating these regulations will be prosecuted under the Disaster Management Act, 2005, Section 188 of IPC, and other applicable laws.”<\/span><\/p>\n

To ensure highway safety during the approaching monsoon season, local authorities throughout Senapati district have been directed to implement strict enforcement measures in their jurisdictions. The move is aimed at preventing the repetition of last year\u2019s disasters, which displaced many and caused widespread damage to property.<\/span><\/p>\n

The onus now falls on local authorities to ensure that the orders are enforced and the highway is cleared of encroachments. As the monsoon rains loom, concerns over the safety of drivers and passengers on this critical transportation corridor have grown. It remains to be seen whether officials will be able to contain the situation and prevent a repeat of the devastating floods and landslides of the past.<\/span><\/p>\n

The issue of illegal encroachments on National Highway-02 represents a pressing concern in Manipur, particularly in light of the state\u2019s history of natural disasters. With the monsoon season just around the corner, the stakes are high, and it is imperative that authorities act decisively to protect the safety and well-being of all concerned.<\/span><\/p>\n
