Imphal, May 13 2016 :
Following the the death of one Disinang who
was run over by an escort driver on April 4 at Oinamlong village, a
meeting was convened by Oinamlong Students' Union and appealed
the State Government to take up necessary measures in order to pre-
vent such incident in future.
During the meeting which was attended
by village leaders, members of women society and youth leaders,
the villagers said that numerous lives including livestock have been
lost along NH-37 after being hit by escort drivers.
Stating that the
escort drivers would drive under the influence, overspeed and over-
take other vehicles, the villagers alleged that the drivers would also
steal food and other items.
The meeting urged the State Government
to look into the matter so as to prevent unwanted incidents in future.
