The de-siltation and removal of excessive vegetation from Naoremkhong are progressing at a steady pace. This initiative is expected to significantly improve water flow, reducing the risk of blockages and enhancing the river’s capacity to manage excess water. By addressing silt accumulation and overgrowth, the project will play a crucial role in mitigating floods, particularly during the monsoon season. Additionally, the restoration efforts will contribute to maintaining the ecological balance of the river while benefiting local communities that rely on it for various needs.
