PM Narendra Modi To Inaugurate Strategic  

With Prime Minister Narendra Modi scheduled to inaugurate the strategic Sela Tunnel in Arunachal Pradesh along the China Front on March 9, we revisit an episode, ' Crossing The Sela Heights: The Roads To Tawang, Much Light At The End Of Game-changing Tunnels', in our series, 'Along The China Front: Commanding The Tawang Heights', that was first aired on June 2, 2023. The Prime Minister is expected to inaugurate and dedicate the Sela Tunnel to the nation on March 9, 2024, in person. If weather impedes his travel, the PM is expected to perform the function in the state but virtually. The Sela Tunnel is the longest in the world at a height of over 13,500 feet. It makes a critical difference for the military to deploy troops and heavy weaponry to the Line of Actual Control (LAC) with China. It also significantly improves connectivity and economic development in the region.

Strategic Importance of Sela Tunnel
The Sela Tunnel is the longest in the world at a height of over 13,500 feet. It makes a critical difference for the military to deploy troops and heavy weaponry to the Line of Actual Control (LAC) with China. It also significantly improves connectivity and economic development in the region. Along with the 500-metre-long Nechiphu Tunnel, the Sela Tunnel provides safe, all-weather strategic connectivity on the Balipara-Chariduar-Tawang (BCT) Road in West Kameng District of Arunachal Pradesh. Connectivity to Tawang over the 14,000-foot Sela pass poses a huge logistics challenge for the Army for at least three to four months in winter. The strategic Sela tunnel is a game-changer for the Indian Army’s capabilities in combating the threat of China’s Western Theater Command. It cuts travel time from the Indian Army’s IV Corps headquarters at Tezpur to Tawang by at least ten kilometres and one hour and also helps make the NH-13 an all-weather road. The tunnels ensure that the 171-kilometer road between Bomdila and Tawang remains accessible for even heavy armoured vehicles and equipment in all weather conditions.
In this series first aired in June 2023, StratNews Global's team of Amitabh P. Revi and Rohit Pandita looks at the spurt in infrastructure and connectivity development that is having a far-reaching effect in the northeastern states of Assam and Arunachal Pradesh. In recent years, India's government has made significant investments and plans for road and tunnel construction to improve connectivity and security along the border. In this episode, we travel along the Balipara-Chariduar-Tawang(BCT) road, through the Nechiphu and Sela Tunnels and the Sela Pass towards Tawang.
