Imphal, May 09 2023:
With gradual improve-ment in law and order situation, Imphal West district administra-tion relaxed curfew from 5am till Barn on Wednesday even as CPI Manipur State appealed to the government to extend the curfew relaxation hours in the interest of the public.
Addressing a press meet at Irawat Bhawan here on Tuesday, CPI state secretary Leishangthem Thoiren said that traders are taking advantage of the situation and hiking prices of essential commodities.
The government should control price rise and extend curfew relaxation hours to ensure basic needs of the common people, he said while pointing out that there has been overall improvement in the sit-uation aftermath of the violent clashes.
