Imphal, August 18 2015:
Khwairamband women vendors have imposed 72 hours complete shutdown of Khwai-ramband bazar from the mid- night of August 18 till August 21 midnight.
A decision to this effect was taken in a joint meeting of vendors held at Khwai-ramband Keithel today.
Presided by women leaders of the four Khwairamband women markets, the joint meeting unanimously resol-ved to ban non-locals from running shops and working as labourers/porters at Khwairamband area till the implementation of ILPS and to impose 72 hours shutdown of Khwairamband market against the indifferent attitude shown by the State Government regarding the ILPS issue.
The meeting also resolved to strengthen the ongoing agitation in case the State Government fails to come up with a new Bill to check the influx of non-locals.
