The road to Mankhu and Goganpani is a crucial lifeline for everyday agriculture trade and for earthquake rebuilding supplies. The India border blockade delayed start of road rebuilding as it created a fuel shortage and we were unable to get fuel for the excavators. Today, we are at the halfway point of fixing this 4.5KM stretch of road. The road belongs to the village development committee and they are managing and supervising the work. Every landowner with property adjoining the road has given up some land in order to make it wider and to allow space for a drainage ditch on the side of the road to help prevent erosion in the moonsoons.
We've restored water to the village, and now we are improving the road. These were two of the most critical needs in our communities.
