The road projects in Karbi Anglong include significant routes such as the Ramanagar Japarajan Road (19 km), the road from Hidipi Bazar to Goutom Basti via Men Tisso (11 km), and the Borjuri to Dadhara route via Dolamara and Malasi (15 km), among others.

Moreover, Ronghang assured that the Karbi Anglong Autonomous Council would work closely with the state government to ensure the timely completion of these projects. He expressed confidence that these road developments would improve access to essential services, provide safer travel options, and boost economic growth in the region.
