The government has claimed to be spending huge amount of money for development of the Assam-Nagaland border areas. But the real development is far away. People in the remote area of Gelakey border areas are living in a deplorable condition; Lahdoigarh, Sunapur, Borhollah, Singibill etc. of Gelakey border areas under Nazira sub-division are facing a lot of problems due to the lack of proper road, bridge, water, electricity etc. The so called Rajiv Gandhi Rural Electrification Scheme is not able to reach these areas till today.
Nagaland has already occupied over 1000 Bighas of forest land of Assam. They have set-up one polling station at Borhollah in their recently held general election. According to the villagers of these areas, till today there is no any clear distinction or sign between the cadastral revenue village and forest-land in the border areas.
To prevent the Naga aggression in Gelakey border the state govt. set-up 3 nos. og BOPs (Border Out Post) at Singibill, Borhollah and Sunapur in 2007, but till today the quantity of battalions in these three BOPs are not adequate and the battalions who deployed here are facing a lot of problems due to the lack of basic amenities like drinking water, light and infrastructure. The tube-well of Borhollah BOP is the only source of drinking water of entire Borhollah Village.
Two broken wooden bridge of Lahdoigarh, which are connecting the 3 BOPs of Gelakey border area shows and reflect the govt’s apathy and negligence towards Gelakey border.
Photo of the broken wooden and bamboo bridges and tube-well in the Assam-Nagaland border area near Gelakey reflect the real picture of border development.

The senior doctors and professors of the Assam Medical College Hospital, Dibrugarh are still beyond control of the State Govt. Although the state health minister Dr. Himanta Biswa Sarmah has trying his best to improve the deplorable condition of the health department, due to hidden power of the corrupt officials and doctors the ongoing mess is still going on severely. Being an attendant of a patient of Medicine Ward II of AMHC, from 29th August to 8th September 2007, it has come to my notice that the newly constructed medicine unit's building which was opened by the Chief Minister of Assam Mr. Tarun Gogoi on last 2nd August 2007 has fulfilled a great demand of the people.

Despite the huge propaganda action ‘Health for all’ of the Govt. of Assam, the State Dispensary of Nazira Town suffers a lot of problems including the shortage of medicine, cotton & bandage, also shortage of staff. A large number of poor people of this locality depends on this dispensary and now the patients are bound to buy each and every medicine from the outside market, which surely insults the Health Awareness Programme of the Govt.
