After taking up daunting projects in the higher reaches, the Border Roads Organisation (BRO) is executing strategic infrastructure assignments in Bhutan to aid its development.
The initiatives assume importance given that Bhutan and China are also in talks over boundary issues especially near Doklam trijunction point which came up for discussion during Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s meeting with the visiting Bhutanese King Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck, earlier this week.
The BRO has commenced three projects in South Eastern Bhutan since last year. These include the rehabilitation of Khothakpa–Tshobaley road, construction of 68-km greenfield Nanglam–Dewathang road, besides development of Motanga industrial park.
