| BRO restores critical road connectivity in Pragwal Sector | | |
early times report
Pragwal, Sep 7: In a swift and commendable response to a major infrastructure disruption caused by heavy rains, the Border Roads Organisation (BRO) has successfully restored the Gharkhal–Pragwal PWD road, the only critical artery connecting the strategically important Pragwal Sector.
Torrential rains had led to the complete washing away of a vital stretch of the road, bringing all civilian and military movement to a halt.
The road blockade severely impacted the mobility of residents and halted essential Army convoy movements to forward-deployed units. Local villagers faced tremendous hardships for several days, with disruptions in supply of daily essentials and medical access.
Responding to an urgent request from the civil administration and the Indian Army, BRO's 57 Road Construction Company (RCC), under the leadership of Lt Col Preetam, immediately mobilized men and machinery. Braving the perilous conditions posed by the swelling Chenab River — which had carved out a new stream — the BRO team worked tirelessly to restore the breach.
Despite extreme challenges, the BRO personnel operated round-the-clock and successfully reconnected the sector. Movement of vehicles has now resumed, bringing immense relief to the local population and restoring operational readiness for the defence forces.
Local residents expressed deep gratitude and admiration for the BRO.
This restoration once again underscores the vital role played by the Border Roads Organisation in ensuring connectivity, security, and support in India's most challenging terrains and conditions. |
