Imphal, August 13 2016 :
Even though NFSA beneficiaries should be given 5 Kgs of rice, only 4 Kgs are given, said some women of Singjamei Waikhom Leikai while asking whether MLAs/Ministers are involved in deducting one Kg of rice from each beneficiary.
Aggrieved womenfolk of Singjamei Waikhom Leikai (Ward No 17) held a meeting today about the sloppy implementation of NFSA.
One Waikhom (O) Dhameshwari said that deduction of one Kg of rice from each beneficiary has multiplied people's grievances who have been already aggrieved by the incumbent local MLA's failure to repair roads and other infrastructure of Singjamei AC.
While beneficiaries are given just 4 Kgs of rice instead of 5 Kgs, the same is not recorded in the ration cards.
She went on to question why beneficiaries of Ward No 17 are given only 4 Kgs of rice each while beneficiaries of Ward Nos 15 and 16 are given 5 Kgs each.
Meanwhile, repairing work has been started on a lane of Singjamei Thongam Leikai at the initiative of Y Khemchand.
