Imphal, February 04 2021:
Imphal West District VDF Welfare Association has urged the Government to increase the honorarium of VDF and provide required facilities for the welfare of VDF personnel.
The association stressed on the importance of granting proper medical reimbursement facility to VDF personnel at par with other State police force.
It continued that the State Government turned a blind eye on the hardships faced by VDF personnel and they are being deployed to maintain law and order at many places where special police forces are needed.
Talking about the plights of VDF personnel the union said that whenever a personnel is injured while on duty, the Government does not provide any assistance for the cost of the treatment and is borne personally which is disheartening.
The union urged the authorities concerned to look into the issue which have been highlighted at many intervals and to take up measures for the welfare of VDF.
