Ukhrul, July 09 2017:
For the first time in Ukhrul district, the Ukhrul District Taxi Welfare Association (UDTWA) has launched air conditioned Tata Winger service on the Imphal-Ukhrul road to make travelling more comfortable for the passengers .
According to the president of UDTWA, Khathing the Association has been rendering winger services in the district since 2009 without any Government assistance .
He mentioned that UDTWA was formed with the objective of creating a platform for the youth to make a living .
With the inception of Winger service in the district, the problem of vehicle shortage and hardship of passengers travelling on the Ukhrul-Imphal has been dealt with to a large extent, he added .
The Ukhrul-Imphal taxi service is available after every 30 minutes at the taxi stand and this has greatly convenienced the travellers, he claimed .
Many local youth have also received gainful employment by driving the taxi, he said.
