Bishnupur, October 12 2019:
Public of Phougakchao Ikhai under Torbung Gram Panchayat in Kumbi AC formed human chain along Tiddim road near Torbung demanding full-fledged function of Phougakchao Ikhai Police Station which was constructed and inaugurated during the tenure of former CM O Ibobi Singh.
The protest was jointly organized by Torbung Area Joint Committee in association with Torbung Area Social Development Organisation, TASA, SYDOP, LAVA, TUC, SWC and Apunba Meira Paibi Lup.
Speaking to the media persons on the sideline of the protest, Convenor Hemam Priyoshakhi, Torbung Area Joint Committee said that Phougakchao Ikhai Police Station which was constructed and inaugurated during the time of former CM O Ibobi Singh was not functioning as full-fledged police station at present, which is quite questionable while urging the present CM who also holds the Home portfolio to look into the matter at the earliest.
She also cautioned the concerned authority to make the said PS a full-fledge Police Station by October 20 failing which the public will resort to various forms of agitation including bandh along Tiddim road from October 21 onwards.
