Bridge-over-Moa-KholaOnce again, Mao River is in the limelight. Both the parties, Druk Phuensum Tshogpa (DPT) and the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), are promising to build a bridge over the river, which never follows the same course. Will the voters buy it this time?

PDP’s Gelegphu candidate, Gopal Gurung, said they will immediately look into the feasibility of constructing a bridge if they come to power. “It is the dream of the people of four gewogs to have a bridge over the Mao River. If the PDP gets elected, we will ensure to start construction within five years,” he said.

DPT’s Gelegphu candidate, Karma Donnen Wangdi, said the promise to construct a bridge over Mao River, this time around, is definite. “It is included in the DPT plan. We have also looked into the cost. This time we are surely going to construct it.”

Some people living across the Mao River, who came to listen to the debate, were sceptical if the promise will be kept. “We are doubtful if they can fulfill their pledge when the country has so much debt,” said a Chuzangang’s resident, Karma Tenzin.

However, he said even if they cannot build a motorable bridge, a suspension bridge will suffice.
