Karmaling, Lhamoizingkha, and Nichula in Dagana, strategically located near Assam and West Bengal, are being included in the Gelephu Mindfulness City project, sparked by improved infrastructure and job opportunities. Long-delayed Sunkosh hydroelectric dam, which is planned between the Karmaling and Nichula gewogs, is one of the most anticipated developments associated with GMC. Changes in government priorities have caused the project, which was first proposed in 2008, to stall for years. Residents are eager to see real progress now that it is part of the GMC master plan.
Local leaders in Lhamoizingkha gewogs are promoting public advocacy about planned infrastructure, highlighting its benefits to residents engaged in farming, livestock rearing, and commercial activities. Residents of Lhamoizingkha are optimistic about the GMC project, which aims to bridge the economic gap and improve energy infrastructure, as the town currently relies on low-capacity electricity from Dagana and Chukha. The proposed road will also enhance trade and transportation. Lhamoizingkha, a low altitude gewog center, is set to benefit from the GMC project, which aims to improve connectivity, economic conditions, and tourism.
