Wangoi AC MLA Oinam Lukhoi and PHED Chief Engineer M Imomcha today inspected water supply schemes located within Wangoi AC.
The team observed worn out conditions of the water supply plants as well as rusted and leaked pipelines.
Later, the PHED Chief Engineer assured that all the water supply schemes located within Wangoi AC would be repaired and augmented soon in addition to replacing worn out
pipes.
Due procedures would also be initiated soon to replace steel overhead tanks with RCC tanks.
Apart from handing over the task of revenue collection from consumers to Village Water Sanitation Committees, special training programmes would be organised so that the committee members can maintain the water supply plants properly, Imomcha said.
MLA Lukhoi stated that his first priority is to revive ailing and non-functional water supply schemes so that people can get potable water regularly.
Other areas of priority as stated by the MLA included road infrastructure, health care and education.
He further declared that economic development programmes would also be initiated soon.
