The traffic signal which was said to be installed in Kalimpong town seems to be in halt because of the inadequate funds. Few days back the traffic official Praveen Gurung had said that the signal would be installed at the Damber Chowk, Thana-Dara and Tuni Botey. After that the department had also submitted the proposal to the Kalimpong municipality tuning to Rs 40 lakhs. On the other hand the municipality chairman LB Pariyar had informed about the scarce funds which would delay the installation of the signals. He had also said that the traffic signals if set up; can reduce the problem only to a certain extent in the town.
NH31A troubles commuters, tourists
The condition of the NH31A from the Baghpool to Riyag is in a shabby condition by which the drivers and the commuters have been facing lots of problem these days. More problems are being faced are by the tourists who are coming to visit Sikkim, Darjeeling and Kalimpong. Places like Kalijhora, Baghpool, Lohapool needs immediate attention from the concerned authority.
