The development was welcomed by the community, who marked the occasion with a traditional Dimsa dance.

Located in the Madugula Assembly constituency, the village known as Pasuvulabandha had previously seen the migration of ten families due to the lack of essential amenities.

Only eight families remained, continuing to live without road connectivity and electricity.
