Mokokchung, March 12 (MTNews): The stretch of 1780 meters main road at Artang ward leading till IMDH Civil Hospital from Sewak side is currently under repair by the residents of the ward.
Talking to Mokokchung Times, an Executive Member of Artang ward authority and the person in charge of the project, Bendangwati,said that the road has not been maintained by the Government since 2014 and that it was considered by many as the worst road in Mokokchung town.

He also encouraged the other wards of Mokokchung town having similar deplorable road conditions to follow them and asserted that, for a better town, “we must put 90% hard labor and expect 10% from government.”
