Imphal, September 12 2015 :
Imphal Municipal Council Pensioners Association (IMCPA) has urged the Imphal Municipal Council (IMC) to immediately clear their due pension amount for 169 months.
During a press meet held at Manipur Press Club here on Saturday, IMCPA secretary Laishram Tomba alleged that the higher authorities of IMC have withheld pension amount of retired IMC staff since the last 169 months.
The old-age pensioners have been continuously demanding the IMC to release the pending pension money, said Tomba.
The High Court of Manipur has already issued an order regarding the matter directing the IMC authorities to immediately clear the due pension amount to the pensioners, he said.
The authorities of IMC have defied the High Court's order, alleged Tomba.
He then appealed to the State Government to look into the matter at the earliest.
