Tengnoupal, May 31 2018:
Kuki Chiefs Association Moreh Block on Thursday strongly condemned the concerned authorities and State Government for poorly implementing the Pradhan Mantri Awaj Yojana Ghramin (PMAY G) for Moreh Block.
Due to non-release of second instalment, the under-construction houses in Khudengthabi village are yet to be finished.
Almost all the houses under the PMAYG scheme have deteriorated to the point that they need to be rebuild again from the scratch.
A team of journalists who visited the village witnessed the deteriorating skeletals (structures) of the houses.
As the houses are not finished yet, people have been taking shelter under rainproof canvas when it rains, the villagers told the journalists.
General secretary of the Kuki Chiefs Association Moreh Block L Jamthang Mate appealed the concerned authorities and State Government to consider the hardship the villagers are facing and release the second installment of the scheme at the earliest.
The Association will launch stringent agitation if the concerned authorities failed to address the appeal of the villagers, said general secretary of Chiefs Association.
