Imphal, September 06 2011:
Staff and students of DOEACC centre, Imphal staged a sit-in protest on its premises at Akampat today against the monetary demands served by certain underground organizations and also various other difficulties faced by the Society.
T Rajendro, AAO of DOEACC who also participated in the protest said that this centre is under the Ministry of Communication and Information Technology, GoI.
But recently the central government has directed that the Centre should be run on its own and has been functioning accordingly.
He further said that due to the lack of funds, the monthly salary of its staff has been pending for five months.
Amidst all these, the monetary demand made to the institution has added further problems to the staffs as well as the students.
There has also been a case where a Director of this institute was shot death by some unknown persons.
He further appealed to all concern not to make any monetary demands in the future and threaten the life and security of the staff and students.
