Bishnupur, July 16 2022:
Bishnupur District VDF Guardian Association on Saturday organised sit-in protests at Oinam Bazar and Phubala Market shed demanding payment of honorarium of VDF at par with time.
Speaking in connection with the protests, Association president Tayenjam Roni pointed out that the monthly honorarium given to VDF personnel is not enough to run a family, hence the government should pay their honorarium compatible with requirement of present time.
VDF personnel have been living in hope that government will consider their welfare, but instead it has been ignoring them and does not appreciate the good work they have done, the president said while appealing to government to consider the demands of VDF personnel for better future of their families.
