After Sunset alert for travellers in Arunachal.
A signboard put up at Bhalukpong inner-line permit check gate in Arunachal Pradesh warns: People are advised to avoid travel in the area after sunset. The state police warning to commuters against travelling inside the frontier state from Bhalukpong ILP check post after sunset follows the abduction of a senior NHPC official from near the area last month. Apart from general commuters, for whom the stretch on National Highway 229 is the only one to either enter or leave the western part of the frontier state, the move is set to impact tourists travelling to Tawang, which houses Asia’s second largest monastery, and is one of the most sought-after destinations on the country’s tourism map.
