The Naga People's Organisation, Senapati has imposed an extended three-day economic blockade along the National Highways passing through the State with effect from midnight of December 2 till midnight of December 5.The NPO has been constrained to take up the action, as the State Government has not heeded the grievances of the hill people with regard to rejecting the population figure of Census 2001 for the hill districts and demand for restoration of the cancelled Diphu-Dhansiri-Karong Railway line project despite two previous agitations.
NPO Senapati unit president M Dili said in a statement.
It may be noted that Grievances Committee on Census 2001 and Karong Railway Head (GCCRK) had called a 2-day total bandh followed by a 10-day economic blockade by United Naga Council, Manipur to press the demands.
