Imphal, January 12 2014 :
Manipur Pollution Control Board (MPCB) and Khurai AC MLA Dr Ng Bijoy has clarified that he did not any charge while issuing forms to probable beneficiaries of the National Food Security Act.
Reacting to the news report as published in some local dailies today that Members of some Gram Panchayats of Khurai AC have been charging Rs 30 per NFSA beneficiary form, Dr Bijoy said that beneficiary forms were printed with serial numbers and distributed to probable beneficiaries through Members and Pradhans without charging any money.
Pradhans were also pre-sent at the press meet held at the MLA's Khurai Chingang-bam Leikai residence.
The Pradhans said that the news report was aimed at maligning the MLAs as well as their image and it did not mention any source.
