Imphal, June 15 2013 :
Mapithel Dam Affected Villages Organisation (MPAVO) has appealed to the Deputy Commissioner of Ukhrul district not to act against the High Court order and deal with matters related to Mapithel dam in a democratic manner.
Issuing a release in this regard, Jajo Themson, Vice President of the Organisation said that MPAVO objects the official notification issued by the DC regarding household verification at Chadong area.
A number of condemnations and objections have been raised in this matter since October 2012 as the process is not through proper channel.
Taking up this issue through wrong channels have created social turmoil and violence.
The Organisation would take up the issue with the National Human Rights Commission if further violence were created over the Mapithel dam matter, MPAVO warned.
