Imphal, April 07 2022:
After shop owners in Paona Keithel closed their shops against the government order of restricting vehicle parking in the area from Wednesday, they have resolved to reopen the shops from Friday as government assured of fulfilling their demands.
Speaking to media persons on Thursday, a shop owner Soibam Shyam informed that Paona Keithel shop owners met government authorities and demanded to allow parking of vehicles in the market.
The authority rejected the demand but allowed five minutes of parking for picking up and dropping of items, he continued, while adding that an understanding was also brought on changing the present oneway traffic system in Paona Keithel.
Respecting the assurance given by the authorities, the shop keepers have decided to reopen the shops from Friday.
However, if the assurances of allowing parking of vehicles for pick up and dropping of items and one way traffic are not fulfilled within April 14 by issuing an order, then the shop owners will launch intense form of agitations, Shyam cautioned.
