Guwahati: At a time when the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led governments at the Centre and the state have assured the people of all-around infrastructural development in Assam, nothing much is being seen on ground, especially if one were to go by the locals of Goreswar in lower Assam’s Baksa district.

Residents of Dhulabari village in Goreswar are facing a tough time in commuting to nearby areas as a proposed concrete bridge over the Puthimari river is yet to become a reality. Although the foundation stone was laid by Bodo Territorial Council (BTC) chief Hagrama Mohillary in 2009 and work started on it soon thereafter, commuters have hardly seen any progress in the past 11 years.
