On Wednesday night, the Deputy Commissioner of Dibang Valley district issued an advisory asking people to avoid travelling to the road till it is restored and "rainfall returns to normalcy," adding that it is anticipated that the restoration will take at least three days. Till that time, connectivity in this region - which is located in the North Eastern most corner of Arunachal Pradesh and shares a border with China in the North - is expected to significantly impaired. Chief Minister Pema Khandu wrote on X, "Disturbed to learn the inconvenience being caused to commuters due to the extensive damage to the highway between Hunli and Anini.
