Imphal, November 03 2012:
It is embarrassing that Tamenglong district still remains the most backward district in Manipur.
In order to join the race of development like other districts, people must take the responsibility instead of shouldering the whole task to the Government, said Tamei A/C MLA Z Kikhonbou Newmai.
The MLA was speaking as the chief guest in the Kut celebration organised by the District Level Kut Celebration Committee at Phaitol Lentol of Tousem Sub-Division.
Tamenglong ADC Vice-Chairman K Humaliabou, Tousem SDO Armstrong Pamei and ADC Member Haokholal were the guest of honour, functional president and chief host of the celebration.
Speaking at the occasion which witnessed presentation of cultural items of different communities, Z Kikhonbou observed that in the present date, most people look for easy money instead of putting into
hard efforts.
Saying that people of developed nations never sit idle, the MLA urged the gathering to work hard to bring development in the district.
The quota of development fund for the district is no less than other districts, the MLA said that development could be easily brought if the Government schemes are properly implemented and funds are managed well.
The MLA however emphasised on the need for people's co-operation in this regard.
Terming the recent gun fights between warring groups as unfortunate, the MLA urged to shun such violent activities.
The chief guest not only released a Kut souvenir but also distributed blankets and sports items to the village chiefs coming from different villages.
Miss Kut contest and musical programmes entertained the gathering later in the night .
