Imphal, February 01 2021:
General secretary of Ima Panthoibi Sana Keithel Lup, Khomdram Joymati has stated that the temporary market shed cannot be opened to the public until the renovation work is completed.
Speaking to reporters at the Temporary Market Shed today, Joymati said the market has been closed since March last year due to the COVED-19 induced lockdown.
She continued that the Imphal Municipal Council (IMC) under Mahud Department started renovating the market shed before the lockdown and it is still going on.
Amid such a situation, the Government announced that the temporary market shed will be opened from February 26 which is not acceptable since it will only worsen the condition of the market since it is not fully renovated.
Kh Joymati also stated that the Government should be held responsible for any untoward incidents while reopening the temporary market shed as there is a high probability of scuffle between the licensed market vendors and those without license.
