It is that time of the year again when hapless inhabitants of villages in Phungyar subdivision of Ukhrul district of Manipur are forced to chip in their own contribution and repair the road themselves during monsoon each year. Case in point is the Shangshak-Tengnoupal road which is in a perpetual state of purgatory  due to non repair for years.Interestingly, the road which is facing government apathy for over two decades also happens to be within the home turf of an ex MP and former chief minister of Manipur Rishang Keishing. This 30 kms road not just links Phungyar subdivision with Sangshak and the rest of the state but also provides connectivity to over 20 contiguous villages and...
