Imphal, November 16 2016:
All Tribal Disables' Union has demanded the State Government to provide special arrangement for disabled people in the light of the recent demonetisation move.
According to a press release, Letminthang Haokip, information and public secretary of the union, disabled people need special care in the light of the recent demonetisation decision as they are not suited to wait for long hours on end in extremely long queues.
Demanding the Government to provide special arrangements for the disabled people, he also urged the creation of special counters with adequate staff for handling the transaction of the aforementioned people.
The Government should investigate cases regarding low denomination notes being easily traded by some people despite the same notes being out of stock in banks, he said and warned that civil societies would take up stern action against those involved if the Government fails to take proper action.
