Imphal, February 21 2015 :
The indefinite bandh imposed along Imphal-Moreh section of National Highway (NH-102) by Tribal Blind Association, Chandel (TBAC) was temporarily suspended following an assurance given by the circle MLA ST Nunghlung Victor Saturday afternoon.
The MLA gave his assurance during a meeting with the representatives of the agitating association led by its secretary K Pareng Kom on Saturday at Pallel police station of Chandel district.
Nunghlung Victor reportedly assured to apprise the Chief Minister on the issues raised by the association.
After the meeting, TBAC Secretary K Pareng Kom however, said that the bandh will be re-imposed if the MLA failed to provide a written assurance from the Chief Minister.
TBAC imposed the indefinite bandh in Chandel District from Friday demanding conversion of the privately run Mission Blind School, Heikakpokpi into a full-fledged Government School.
