  • Hi. I've just been to visit on holiday from england, and I thought this district was a lovely place. Went up-river in a jeep with tents for a few miles. Beautiful jungle scenery. Stayed with a very kind gentleman in Rotung who took pity on us when the weather gods decided to bless us with torrential rain for 2 days. In hindsight, I wish we'd managed to push on as far as Boleng, but it was sadly not to be. Never mind, I guess there's always next year ...
  • Pasighat is a land of natural beauty.surrounded by mountains.its a place where nature and people are at their level best.
  • Raneghat Bridge, Even after 21 years of laying foundation stone by Rajiv ji, it is still under construction. Not becos of flood, but, GAMMON, GREF have never taste (test) the the taste/wrath of mighty Siang, the water flow / current cannot be compared with any other river in the World. Hints to Gammon/Gref: - Please surrender and handover the work to any other company, so that we have a bridge at earliest.
