Imphal, January 12:
With regard to the various projects being planned/taken up with Backward Region Grant Fund (BRGF) under DRDA in Chandel district, the Naga Students' Union Chandel (NSUC) has warned the authority concerned not to proceed with the projects before creating proper awareness among the public.
The NSUC information and publicity secretary demanded that a proper screening should be conducted before the projects works are implemented.
Stating that the people of the district, particularly those residing in remote areas never raised any complaint even though they have been suffering from various hardships, the NSUC asserted that it would not remain silent when development works meant for the area are either jeopardised or bungled.
Demanding that the relevant agency and authority concerned should first discuss the proposed projects with the NSUC, it cautioned that non-fulfilment of these conditions would result in agitation of all sorts.
