PM Modi inaugurated the Sela Tunnel in Arunachal Pradesh's Tawang district, marking its significance as the world's longest bi-lane tunnel at an altitude of 13,000 feet.
The project, costing Rs 825 crore, comprises two tunnels with a total length of around 12 km, including approach roads and link roads, aimed at providing 'all-weather' connectivity to the Tawang region.
The inauguration of the Sela Tunnel marks a significant milestone in India's infrastructure development efforts, particularly in enhancing connectivity to remote and strategically important regions like Tawang in Arunachal Pradesh.
