Imphal, October 12 2012:
In view of the continuous hardship faced by the public for very long period in regard to distribution of Public Distribution System (Rice & Kerosene), Petrol and diesel, and LPG due to black marketing and hoarding by the proprietors, dealers and agents, the underground KNLF/KPA has issued strict instruction to all concerned.
Ensuring delivery of PDS items to designated people and places, and selling of PDS items at Govt price by PDS officials and agents; ensuring the petrol and diesel not to reach the hands of the black marketers and avoid hoarding of the oil for higher price by Oil pump dealers; to follow strict guidelines of the company and Govt by LPG dealers and also to stop supplying gas to black marketers by LPG dealers are the points laid down by the KNLF, according to a statement issued by Sumand Kuki, Secretary Publicity Department of the outfit.
It also asked all DSO to strictly abide by the Govt guidelines and to be vigil in handling and distribution of the PDS items by the dealers and agents.
Agents from far flung areas should reach all the items at their respective destination and should shun selling the PDS items in the black markets, said the KNLF.
In case of mishandling and negligence on the given points by the officials, dealers and agents after strict information, heavy penalty and befitting actions shall be imposed to them by the party.
