Imphal, January 20, 2011:
Don Bosco, Pheiyeng in Imphal West district under Lamsang PS has been shut down following a monetary demand of KCP (MC) Lamyanba Khuman.
An official of the school said the school has been closed down indefinitely as it cannot afford to pay Rs.3 lakh demanded by the UG group.
The demand was made on December 21, 2010 by the UG group.
A meeting between the school authority and guardians of the students was held yesterday to discuss the matter.
The UG group had warned them that the school should remain closed till they made the payment.
Following the threat, the school has been shut down from today.
Meanwhile students and parents have appealed to the UG group to withdraw its demand.
