POINGUINIM: The felling of trees for road-widening work at Polem has sparked off yet another controversy, amid contrasting claims by officials of the highways and forest department.
While officials claim that the project consists of road-widening work, locals allege that work is afoot to erect a toll booth plaza for levying entry tax to vehicles from across the border.
