Imphal, January 27 2016:
The
Zeliangrong Youth Front
(ZYF) and Zeliangrong
Sudent's Union Manipur

ism Department, Government
of Manipur to give justification
and clarification why develop-
ment works which are
supposed to to be taken up in
respect of Tamenglong district
are yet to commence till date
even after development fund
has already been sanctioned.
Fund for taking up devel-
opment works in the form of
project such as Integrated
Tourist Circuit lin
king at
Barak waterfalls, Tharon
caves, Zeilad lake and
Bunning Meadow was sanc-
tioned in the
year 2013 by the
Government of India, Minis-
try of Tourism with a sum of
Rs 7,80,81,000, the two bod-
ies said in a statement.
The
two Zeliangrong bodies also
urged the Government of In-
dia to investigate why taking
up such development work
has been delayed even after
many years since sanction
was made without any appro-
priate reason.
