Imphal, June 15 2021:
Chandel District Fishery Farmers' Development Committee (CDFFDC) and other CSOs have made it clear that they will not allow the newly appointed district fishery officer (DFO) K Jenishing Tarao to join duty in Chandel.
In a release, CDFF- DC general secretary J Chithung said that they and other CSOs of Chandel have filed a complaint to Chandel Naga Peoples' Organisation (CNPO) regarding the appointment of the new DFO.
CDFFDC in its complaint said that their demand for removal of the tainted former DFO Kh Ibetombi Devi has been accepted, but the Department of Fishery has yet again sent another tainted officer who already has a bad record in the district.
The CSOs of Chandel are appalled by the attitude of the state government as if Chandel is the dumping place of all corrupt officers, it added.
The CSOs reiterated that unless the Department of Fishery listens to their grievances and appoint officers in consultation with them, there will not be any amicable solution.
