Imphal, June 14 2022:
Even though the government is taking up commendable initiatives to clear blockage of public roads and footpaths, the same government is turning a blind eye when the owner of a private residential building constructed brick wall occupying the footpath right under the nose of City police station.
The building in question is located on the eastern side of SBI main branch office in MG Avenue of Thangal Keithel.
A brick wall is being constructed by occupying half of the footpath.
It not only creates huge inconvenience to the public but also violates the laws.
Several individuals, especially senior citizens are expressing their dissatisfaction over the silence of the government in this matter .
Mention may be made here that chief minister N Biren instructed officials concerned to remove piles of construction sand and stone chips from the footpath and triple parking of vehicles along Tiddim road on Saturday after a Facebook page uploaded photos of the same.
