Imphal, November 04 2021:
JAC Fishery Co-operative Society, Kakching, Bishnupur, Imphal East and Imphal West has withdrawn its decision of not taking part in the Fish Fair organised by the state Fisheries Department, following the assurance given by the state government of releasing Rs 39 crore first from the funds sanctioned by National Cooperative Development Corporation (NCDC) as soon as possible.
Announcing this to newspersons at Manipur Press Club here Thursday, JAC convenor Salam Joy clarified that the JAC has no connection with the Fisheries Foundation Union, Manipur, which declared in media on Wednesday of participating in the fish fair.
Stating that decision was withdrawn in consideration of the daughters of the state and also in view of the assurances given by the government; the convenor, however, cautioned of launching intense agitations if the government fails to release the funds at the earliest.
