A meeting was held at Wangkhem Community Hall, Imphal East today at 2 pm to discuss the Government's new initiative on the production and sale of country liquor.
It was organised by Coalition Against Drugs & Alcohol (CADA) Wangkhem Unit in association with Nongmaileima Meira Paibi, according to a statement issued by CADA.
The event was attended by Takhellambam (O) Memma, president CADA Wangkhem Unit, Phijam (O) Sanajaobi, secretary Wangkhem Nongmaileima Meira Paibi and Hijam Priyokumar, president CADA as presidium members while Geetchandra Mangang, secretary general CADA and Mayengbam Budhi, secretary organisation CADA were present as resource persons.
