Imphal, April 08 2018:
A public meeting was organised by Flood Affected people's of Magaji River of 5 Villages (Tentha, Tekcham, Sapam, Chingtham and Mairenkhul) at Kangla Youth Club ground in Tentha Mayai Leikai today.
During the meeting, the dignitaries deliberated that the flood
which often occurs from the overflowing of Magaji river is caused by narrowing of the river and increase in thickness of the riverbed.
Cleaning and digging the riverbed will increase the depth of the river which in turn will decrease the chance of flooding in monsoon season, they asserted.
It also resolved to urge the authority concerned to take up the digging work from Tentha Thongkhong till Chingkakpi of Magaji river among other decisions.
