Dimapur, May 2 (EMN): An inauguration programme of the Khonoma Basa link road between Terho Tsiese and NEC Road, Dzulekie (Kitsuju) was held at the link road junction (Kitsuju) on April 26.
Speaking at the occasion, Rovilatuo Mor, Commissioner of Nagaland, expressed his wish for the offshoot village -- Khonoma Basa -- to be a strong pillar of support for Khonoma village. He also urged the younger generation to open up to new ideas and ventures along with the ever-changing society that would ultimately lead to the expansion of the settlement instead of staying stagnant in the old village.
In his welcome address, the chairman of Khonoma Basa, Megosesie, thanked the Khonoma village council for allowing Khonoma Basa to be recognised as a new settlement in 2018.
He informed that the Khonoma link road came into existence with support from Kovi Meyase, Additional Secretary of Labour and Employment, along with free donations of land from the owners along the stretch of the road. He further acknowledged free-will contributions from several individuals and different organisations.
