Thoubal, December 05 2019:
Over 250 students (Class VI-VIII) and 40 teachers of LI Standard English School, Charangpat Icham Khunou have cleaned mud and soil from four different road stretches of Heirok and Wangkhem Assembly Constituencies of Thoubal District, today.
The students and teachers carried out the cleanliness drive at Yairipok to Pechi, Yairipok to Charangpat, Thokchom to Uyal and Charangpat to Bengi road stretches.
Speaking to media persons by the sideline of the drive, one of the participating teachers said that the debris picked up by machines and vehicles used in paddy fields have become a major inconvenience to the commuters, especially at night.
Though there is a ban on movement of such vehicles, the tractor drivers and farmers repeatedly violate the order due to the failure of the Police Department to take up stern action against them, he asserted.
