Imphal, January 21 2022:
Women Welfare Association, Langthabal has informed that 38 households from Langthabal Mantrikhong whose names were included in the National Food Security Act portal in 2017 are yet to receive their NFSA cards while individuals who had been registered in the portal in 2018, 2020 and 2021 have received their allocation of rice under NFSA.
In a press meet held at Langthabal Mantrikhong Makha Leikai Community Hall, a representative of Women Welfare Association named Kebi stated that this turn of events can be attributed to the influence of political factors.
Kebi questioned the logic behind families registered in 2018, 2020 and 2021 receiving their share of rice and 38 households registered in 2017 still having to demand for their rightful share.
Kebi stated that this is a violation of their tights and cautioned that legal action will be taken up against the perpetrators responsible for this gross negligence.
