Among the many things not running smooth in Manipur, India's Jewel, are the roads. The transport system in this north-eastern state for more than a decade, has been a matter of concern for most Manipuris, especially the Hmar tribe living in Tipaimukh sub division of Churachandpur district. With the impending 'Mautam' (famine due to Bamboo flowering) in the region, villagers in the sub division are a worried lot as there are practically no government office functioning in the area to turn to.
