Thoubal, September 05 2016:
In protest against the decision of the Manipur State Power Distribution Company Ltd to string a 33KV HT line across Phoudel Mamang Leikai under Wangkhem Assembly Constituency, the JAC formed against this exercise has started an indefinite bandh along the road that connects Yairipok and Thoubal.
From early morning, the JAC members started stopping all vehicles passing along the said stretch of the State highway and also tried to stop the ongoing work of erecting post for the said HT line.

On getting information of the matter, Thoubal police commandos and personnel of Yairipok police rushed to the place and fired tear gas shells to disperse the protesters. Till the time filing this report the work continued.
The indefinite bandh along the road was announced yesterday by the secretary of Phoudel Youth Club as the work of erecting the posts for stringing the HT line started without any prior notice yesterday.
