The women organisations will lock the office of the Manipur State Power Distribution Company Limited, Jiribam indefinitely from February 1 if the transfer order is not revoked, said the women leaders speaking at the conference hall of Jiri News Network (JNN) today.

Speaking to media persons, N Nivarani, president, WASED claimed that K Jayantakumar was posted as Manager of the Borobekra sub-division MSPDCL on January 22 and his further transfer order was issued the very next day on January 23 .
Decrying the frequent and immediate transfer order of officials posted in Jiribam district, the organisations said that such policy/act has undermined and slowed down development processes in the region.
