Imphal, January 20, 2012::
All heads of departments of Govt of Manipur have been advised to make available the departmental vehicles under requisition by the Directorate of Transport, in connection with ensuing Assembly election, without further delay failing which necessary actions/proceedings shall be initiated against the defaulting departments/officers concerned.
According to a statement issued by the Director (Transport) Department vehicles under requisition along with driver(s) should report at the Transport Cell (elections), Hapta Kangjeibung to avoid punitive action.
It also appealed to owners of commercial/private vehicles such as Shaktimans, 4x4 trucks, 407 mini trucks, Tata DIs/Sumos, Gypsys, Boleros, 4x4 Jeeps (petrol/diesel) to extend cooperation for ensuring smooth conduct of the forthcoming election by providing their respective vehicles along with drivers at the Hapta Kangjeibung Cell.
