Imphal, April 13 2017:
Zeliangrong Baudi (Assam, Manipur and Nagaland) has urged the authorities concerned to shift the Gorkha Rifles posts from residential areas to other suitable places.
In a statement, ZB (AMN) general secretary Dr Gairiangmei Maringmei said that Gorkha Rifles personnel have been occupying many places including SDO/BDO office, Khoupum Valley, grain godown, Leimatak village, primary school, Nungbai village, Taosang Khullen and Namkaolong village Part-I, Luwanglong Khunou etc.
ZB (AMN) said that though it has no objection in deploying security personnel or setting up of security posts, deployment and setting up of the same in residential area have made the lives of innocent villagers particularly women uneasy.
It further appealed to the Centre and State Government to initiate necessary steps for shifting of army posts from the mentioned areas to other suitable places in the interest of the public.
