The Sentinel

Speak softly and carry a big stick, is an adage we have all heard quite often. It is quite useful when you are leading the charge of building infrastructure that involves roads & highways, and tunnels that require high engineering expertise. Not just ordinary roads and tunnels, but infrastructure that is rife with claims and clearances, not to forget surreptitious attacks that marks the international borders crucial to the country. Nagendra Nath Sinha, MD, National Highways and Infrastructure Development Corporation (NHIDCL), has his work cut out for him. In a tête-à-tête with Construction Week, the soft-spoken Sinha with a gentle demeanour reveals why building roads in the North East and other states bordering neighbouring countries is not an easy task. It handles projects in all the North Eastern states like Tripura, Assam, Manipur, Meghalaya, Arunachal Pradesh, Andaman & Nicobar, Jammu & Kashmir, Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh and West Bengal.
