The Protection and Preservation Committee, Manipur (PPCM) has urged the authorities concerned of the price fixation committee to open an office to ensure easy access to the public for raising concerns on price irregularities.
PPCM in a press note informed that volunteers of PPCM found that many wholesale shops along the Masjid Road in Paona Keithel defying the norms laid down by the State authorities for sale of goods during an inspection drive carried out yesterday.

During the drive, the team of PPCM found that many shops had not displayed the price list of commodities sold in the shops and the shops were selling the same products at different prices.
PPCM expressed discontent that despite repeated appeals the shops in major marketplaces across the State have failed to follow the authorized norms of selling commodities which is really unfortunate.
Above these, most of the shops did not provided proper receipts or cash memos to the customers thereby creating room for unfair sale and practices to deceive the customers, it continued.
PPCM maintained that the shops are practising the aforementioned practices freely due to lack of intervention from the authorities concerned of the Government.
Expressing concern on the various practices carried out by the shops, PPCM urged the authorities concerned to take up strict measures to regulate the same in the interest of the common people.
Lastly PPCM stated that it will continue its inspection drive and sought support and cooperation from all towards the cause.
