Imphal, July 18 2020:
Wangkhei Lourembam Leirak Semgat Sagatpa Lup (WLLSSL) has stated that prohibiting the road repairing works executed by the managing director of HVS construction, Huidrom Vikramjit Singh in Yaiskul Kendra is rather unfortunate.
Speaking to media persons during a press meet held at Wangkhei Lourembam Leirak on Friday, one of the volunteers of WLLSSL said that the repairing work was initiated as the department concerned and the State Government failed to do their parts.
Many roads in the Constituency are in dilapidated conditions for a very long time, he added.
Saying that the ban was imposed by one Prakash who is an EE of PWD on June 27, he added that imposing a ban on the said work without submitting official letters to the Works Minister and many high ranking officials is nothing but misuse of power.
He then demanded the department to withdraw the prohibitory order at the earliest.
If repairing the dilapidated roads by Vikramjit is a problem then PWD can do the work, he said and appealed to the department concerned and the State Government to repair the road stretch from Konung Mamang to Kongba at the earliest.
He also asserted that a complaint has been filed at Manipur Human Rights Commission and a PIL at Manipur High Court regarding the matter.
