ITANAGAR, Apr 20: BJP’s  Zilla Parishad Member from Chayangtajo  Moik Bagang has appealed to the state government for the establishment of SBI branch, restoration of BSNL network , installation of Airtel tower and deployment of more staff in health and educational institutions in the Chayangtajo constituency.
Addressing the media at the press club here today, Bagang said Chayangtajo being the oldest constituency in East Kameng district lacks all the basic facilities from health, telecommunication, education and banking sector.
He said the lack of government and private banks in the constituency is creating problems for the people in availing government benefits like MGNREGA, old age pensions, honorarium of the GBs, which is deposited through direct benefit transfer (DBT).
“Moreover, the management of central and private schools are also facing a huge problem in depositing money collected through the parents during admission. It is very difficult for the people living in the villages to travel all the way to Seppa to withdraw and deposit their money,” he said.
Chayang Tajo, an ADC headquarter, also holds the PWD Division office and RWD and WRD Sub division office.
Informing that the Community Health Centre (CHC) at Chayangtajo and Primary Health Centre (PHC) at Yangfo village are in dilapidated condition without sufficient staff, Bagang appealed to the Chief Minister to post sufficient medical staff in the PHC and CHC.
He also said the lack of subject teachers at the Government Higher Secondary School, Chayantajo is hampering the education of students.
“Last year I appointed two subject teachers and was also paying their salary so that students were not affected. But now I am facing an acute shortage of money, and not in a position to pay their salary. Hence, I appeal to the state government to post subject teachers in the school,” he added.
Bagang also appealed to the state government to restore the BSNL network which has not been working for months and install an Airtel tower in the headquarters. Creation of the Electrical division office in headquarters to avoid a tiresome journey to Seppa for official works and complaints was another demand.
