Imphal, November 23 2022:
While welcoming initiative of the government to keep tab on operation of private rehabilitation centres through the registration process under Social Welfare Department, Rehabilitation of Users for Social Transformation (U-Trust) termed as unfortunate that some rehab centres are trying to sabotage and taint the ongoing registration exercise through misleading information.
Speaking to media persons at Langol, U-Trust member Angom Robindro lauded the new initiative of the government for monitoring private rehabilitation centres.
However, it is unfortunate that some people who did not even set up rehabilitation centres issued statements in the media with the ulterior motive to project Social Welfare Department and rehabilitation centres in poor, he contended.
Refuting the claims of those that no question regarding human rights violation and training were asked during the inspection, Robindro stated that the inspection team raised the same posers when they visited their centre.
While appealing against spreading false news intent to create confusion among the people, he urged all concerned to consult authorities concerned and the department instead.
