The Banderdewa is the entry of several district of state which include Papum Pare, Lower Subansiri, East Kameng, Kra Daadi, Kurung Kumey and Kamle but the photo speaks that this is a simple entry gate for entry of few people with essential duty and few vehicle passed with essential duty and few of security personnel’s.
On Sunday the same check gate has witness that more than five-eight thousand people has gone out and more than one thousand people and vehicle has entered inside with essential and other duty and also more than five hundred people has tested for Cvoid 19 but today the capital complex and a part of Papum Pare district witness full containment order (lockdown) owing to rapid increase of Cvoid 19 positive cases has change the scene of the checkgate where the domestic animal (Cow) was seen moving in between the chekgate on the highway in front of main checkgate.
