The Hodam Leirak Yumjao Lairembi Meira Paibi Nupi Kanglup has urged the authority concerned to distribute the exact quota of rice reserved for the people of Keishamthong Hodam Leirak under the NFSA and to distribute the pending six months worth of rice grains which the previous State Government failed to do.
Speaking to media persons at Hodam Leirak community hall, Laishram Mangita, secretary of the Meira Paibi lup said that the beneficiaries of Hodam Leirak have not been getting their reserved quota of rice grains.
She also pointed out that six months worth of rice grains are still pending for the beneficiaries from the time of the Congress Government.
"Of the rice being distributed now, only 4 kgs of rice are being distributed out of the normal quota of 5 kg", she added and urged the authority concerned and the local MLA not to politicise the distribution of rice and to take up necessary steps to distribute the pending six months rice quota for the locality.
