Addressing the gathering, Director RIMS, Imphal, expressed that the new connecting road is dedicated to the public, staff, and faculty, particularly benefiting the students. This road will directly link the old campus of RIMS with the new campus, significantly reducing travel distances. He commended the Engineering Cell, RIMS, Imphal, for completing the project within a remarkable timeframe of 2 months.
