Arunachal to host motorsports event in hills
ITANAGAR: Arunachal Pradesh will host a major motorsports event for two days from Thursday, in the hills from Namsai to Pangsau Pass, aimed at promoting the state as a new destination for adventure tourism, organisers said.
The 11-km stretch will take competitors to an altitude of about 3,727 feet near the Indo-Myanmar border. Key attractions of the event named PowerDrive include a hill climb event, described as the first of its kind in the country, which will be flagged off from Hell Gate on January 22.
Another highlight is the tarmac autocross event, also a first in India, scheduled to be held in Namsai town on January 23.
