Ukhrul, July 26 2014 :
Expressing serious displeasure over denial of power supply in Kamjong areas, the aggrieved public have urged the relevant State authorities to immediately look into the matter as more than 30 villages have been living in darkness since July 12 .
In an interaction with mediapersons, Kamjong Development Committee (KDC) chairman Ngaraipam Kasar stated the villagers under Kamjong sub-division have been living in the dark as there was no power supply since July 12 and the public effort to contact the responsible official at Kamjong sub-station on the matter has remain futile.
In spite of repeated attempts to gauge any information from the Kamjong power sub-station, Kasar said the responsible official particularly the assistant engineer has not reported for duty for the last few months.
Public are confused as to why the power supply has been abruptly cut at 7.15PM on July 12 and ever since denied electricity to over 30 villages in the areas.
The KDC also urged the concerned MLA and other State authorities to address the problem in all earnest, and particularly look into the dereliction of duty by responsible official in Kamjong power sub-station.
