Rice stocked inside the office of Thangmeiband Youth Organisation by District Supply Officer, Imphal West of CAF&PD Department was taken away in bulk by a group of people led by Th Joykisan after breaking open the club's door at around 9 am today.
On the other hand, DSO Imphal West LDC Md Ahamed Ali has filed a report at Imphal police station about ransacking the club premises.
According to the report, several hundred quintals of rice were stocked inside the club office for distribution to public through fair price shop agents.
As the LDC went to talk with the former MLA together with some police personnel, they were blocked on the way by supporters of the former MLA.
The report appealed to the police department to take necessary legal action against all the culprits.
