Laipham Khunou Youth Development Association (LKYDA) general secretary Ng Rakeshwor has claimed that Sangakpham and Laipham Khunou area falling under the operational jurisdiction of the association is now a COVID-19 free zone.
Addressing a press conference at LKYDA complex on Thursday, Rakeshwor said that people of Sangakpham and Laipham Khunou area falling under the operational jurisdiction of the association were badly affected by COVID-19 as 250 residents contracted the virus and 11 of them succumbed to the disease.
However, local people under the aegis of LKYDA formed Laipham Khunou Warriors and launched a collective fight against the virus.
Due to the hard work, alertness and dedication of local volunteers, Sangakpham and Laipham Khunou area is now free from the virus, he said, adding that this has been possible due to the moral and material support extended by local people.
