A massive landslide has washed away a major portion of a highway in Arunachal Pradesh, disrupting road connectivity with Dibang Valley, a district bordering China. The district witnessed heavy landslides between Hunli and Anini on the National Highway-33 yesterday due to heavy rainfall over the past few days, authorities said.

The National Highways and Infrastructure Development Corporation Limited (NHIDCL) has mobilized resources to repair the damaged stretches of the highway. Currently, there is no scarcity of food and other essential items.

NH-33 is considered the lifeline for the residents of the district and the army.

The state government has issued a travel advisory and said the restoration exercise will take at least three days.

CM Pema Khandu of Arunachal Pradesh addresses the disruption caused by a landslide on National Highway-33 in Dibang Valley near China. He assures quick restoration of connectivity between Hunli and Anini towns.
