Close on the heels of sanctioning of the double laning of the Stilwell Road which connects Myanmar to India; the Centre has accorded top priority to another road project in Arunachal Pradesh which will connect Tawang near the China border at one end to Bogibeel in Dibrugarh district in Asom at the other, indicating the seriousness with which the Centre is pursueing its Look East policy to boost trade and economic ties with neighbouring South-east Asian countries. A source in Arunachal Pradesh PWD (Roads) told this correspondent over telephone that a week ago, the Ministry of Road and Surface Transport had sought a detailed project report for laying the Arunachal Highway-- a length of 1800 kms which would traverse the entire length and breadth of Arunachal. The road will begin at Tawang in the western tip and will join Kanubari at the eastern tip near Naharkatia and proceed to Bogibeel. The advantage will be that a double lane highway will be made available to the Arunachalis without passing through Asom, the source stated. The route has been designed from Tawang to Nechiphu from which it will go throughout the places like Seppa in the East Kameng district, Sagroli, Ziro Bame, Along, Pasighat, Mahadevpur in the Lohit district, Kanubari and finally to Bogibeel in Asom.
