The Mapithel Dam Affected Ching-Tam Organisation (MDACTO) Ukhrul district has announced that it severs ties with Mapithel Dam Affected Villages Organisation (MDAVO).
Citing MDAVO's alleged negotiation with Expert review Committee (ERC) for the past few years without consulting MDACTO as one of the reasons behind its decision to sever ties, a statement issued by the VC of MDACTO, Wungreiso Jojo and joint sectretary Letsei Mate, the MDACTO announced that it ha withdrawn from MDAVO.
Stating that ERC, a guideline body, is not a decision making authority, the statement further added that there would be no solution in negotiating with ERC.
The statement also alleged some leaders of MDAVO from Chadong village as giving false assurance to the affected villagers.
