ITANAGAR, Nov 10: Pare Project Downstream Welfare Committee" (PPDWC), representing all the land affected owners and villagers of Rose, Chiputa, Manni, Lekha and Midpu, served a 15-day ultimatum to the Chief Secretary and Head of the NEEPCO for early intervention on its demands failing which the committee has threatened to call for democratic agitation.
Addressing a press conference, Chairman, PPDWC, Yab Tra Camdir informed that due to huge discharge of water from the Pare project, villagers are facing untold problems which need to be pondered upon on an urgent basis.
“We demand the authority to take necessary steps for the protection of WRC and plantation land at vulnerable areas since from the construction of the Pare Hydro Electrical Project large quantity of water is being discharged due to which agriculture, horticulture and plantation land of above mentioned villages get inundated on a daily basis.
The Committee has also sought protection of the wire rope suspension bridge in different locations of downstream areas. ‘ Due to discharge of huge and excessive river water from the dam and also due to rising in velocity of water current now the present bridges are in danger of collapse, which need immediate attention’, added the Chairman.
