With the objective of extending aid to the injured victims of the ethnic violence and creating jobs for the displaced people whose houses have been destroyed, a corpus fund is being created.
A meeting of many individual entrepreneurs and business organisations was held today at Hotel Imphal and the Meitei Trade Bodies Coordinating Body (MTBCB) was formed.
Speaking to media persons after the meeting, MTBCB member Thokchom Jotin informed that the meeting agreed to create a corpus fund in order to partially meet the medical expenses of the injured victims, distribute relief materials to relief camps and create jobs for the displaced people.
Meanwhile, the Business Excellence Group (BEG) today donated medical kits and medicines to RIMS, specially for those people who sustained injuries in the ethnic violence.
The medical kits and medicines were handed over to RIMS Medical Superintendent Sanjib Nepram.
