The USSC appreciated the ongoing works taken up by District Administration despite the lack of fund allocation in the Kiphire Aspirational District and expressed its commitment to preparations that reflect true progress. The Conference also expressed its gratitude to the district administration for filling potholes as a quick remedy.

On the other hand, the Conference conveyed its dismay to the concern department for not maintaining the circular roads of Kiphire Aspirational District though Union Finance Minister’s visit was pre-informed. “It may be clarified that this is the attitude of various departments under Kiphire District where Kiphire is being placed in bottom line index of the non-performing category,” stated the student body.  Further, the Conference appealed the concern department to blacktop Kiphire District headquarter circular roads in “the shortest possible time”.
