AGARTALA, Sep 4 (TIWN): National Highway’s pathetic condition at Chandrapur turned worst following incessant rain since two days. Tripura’s lifeline is once again under threat with the rain water flooding over the road disrupting busy lives in state. NH-44, NH-8 (from Assam-Khayerpur) across Tripura are in bad condition as well as lack of proper water discharging machinery from AMC. On Monday the office goers were found in much critical situations due to the waist level water flowing over the national highways. From Chandrapur area in Agartala the critical situation begins towards Northern Tripura, whereas in other subdivisions also the situation is not at all under control. The Agartala to Southern part of Tripura is suffering massively from same problem, but that's due to the unseasonal double lane construction work taken in hand that already crossed the deadline. Apart from that the narrow broken roads all over the state is not only increasing the chances of accidents, but also slowing the vehicle movements.An one hour journey taking almost 3 hours to reach the destination.

Heavy monsoon rains brought Tripura capital to a halt, with Govt machinery struggling to cope up with flooding . Incessant rain flooded several parts of Tripura and paralyzed services for commuters daily. 

The Capital-City's travellers expressed huge resentment in the morning morning as the pakka-road has turned kachha-road due to the double lane work's materials as sands are floating on the road making the way very dangerous to pass fueled by various  unseen holes  on the roads. In the dry season the work was going at a snail space, resulting the roads now have become dangerous due to the mud over the road mixed with rain water.
