Imphal, January 04 2017:
Kangchup police station which was scheduled to be inaugurated by Deputy Chief Minister Gaikhangam and Irrigation and Flood Control Minister Ngamthang Haokip yesterday morning could not be inaugurated after violence erupted.
The report that it was inaugurated and published in this paper was a gross error.
It is learnt that Deputy Chief Minister Gaikhangam who is also the Home Minister and IFCD Minister Ngamthang Haokip were supposed to inaugurate the police station within Kangppokpi district as per the schedule.
DGP LM Khaute and several other top officials had also arrived to take part in the inaugural function.
However, the inaugural function could not be performed as per the plan as an enraged mob sparked violence.
