It is understood that road plays as principal role in the advancement of the rural places anywhere in the world. The magnitude of the development first counts on the condition and the availability of good road. The people residing in the remotest hamlets where the conditions of the roads are appalling, one can picture the state of the lives settled there. One such story is that of the 11 kms long Takling road.
The road till Teesta Gram Panchayat looks fine but as soon as it enters to Takling GPU, one can witness the pathetic condition of the road. The agriculturally dependent Takling farmers had to come down Teesta to market their produced almost every day, but they have been facing enormous hurdles due to the road condition. The question of small vehicles on the road is unimaginable, only jeeps and big vehicles ferry down the 11 kms long kutcha road. The Takling road also connects the rural places like Mangwa, Chota Mangwa, Chegra, Soreng, Kalimpong, Teen Chule etc.
The residents of the place during emergencies like that of illness have to rush via the road to the Teesta Primary Health Centre where only primary treatment is accessible and most of the patients are referred to Kalimpong which is 30 kms from Teesta.
The GTA area Sabhasad Ramesh Lama on the other hand had assured the villagers for the speedy restoration of the road in coordination with the Special Engineering Cell. The villagers of the area have appealed the concerned department to kick start crafting the condition of the road at the earliest.
