TUENSANG — Advisor for Civil Administration Works Division (CAWD) Kudecho Khamo, along with CAWD officials led by Assistant Chief Engineer (ACE) Ketousielie Kenguruse, inspected ongoing construction projects at Tseminyu, Wokha, Mokokchung, and Longkhim in Tuensang district on Wednesday.
At Tseminyu, the team inspected the ongoing construction of the new Deputy Commissioner’s (DC) Office Complex and flat-type quarters in the presence of DC Japheth Woch, Assistant Engineer Vethivolu Nyekha, contractors, and other district officials.
The Tseminyu DC Office Complex, funded under the Special Assistance to States for Capital Investment (SASCI) scheme and state funding, is designed as a ground-plus-two-storey reinforced cement concrete (RCC) building. The complex will feature a conference hall, accessibility features for persons with disabilities (PwDs), and an elevator.
Kenguruse observed that changes in the work structure had contributed to delays but expressed confidence that the project would be completed soon, as no further changes were expected. The contractor assured the team that the project would be completed within six to eight months, stating that most of the major components had been completed.
Khamo commended the progress of the work and observed that, at the current pace, the project could be completed within six months. He also expressed satisfaction with the progress and workmanship.

The inspection team later proceeded to Mokokchung, where it inspected the ongoing construction of flat-type officers’ quarters, including a Type-C quarter in Mokokchung town. The team also inspected the ongoing construction at the Additional Deputy Commissioner’s (ADC) Office Complex at Longkhim under Tuensang district.
During the tour, Khamo said the government was undertaking developmental works across the state despite limited financial resources.
Describing administrative officers as pillars of the government, he said the government is working to improve administrative infrastructure and facilities.
He urged the officers to ensure that welfare-orientated schemes reach the people, including those in the most remote areas.
Khamo also sought public support for the government’s initiatives, stating that collective efforts were necessary to translate the vision of the government and the chief minister into tangible benefits for the people.
