Jiribam, July 11 2014 :
It is feared that the Inspection Bungalow (IB) of Jiribam PWD situated at IB Leikai in Jiribam sub-division of Imphal East district may be swept away in the water current Jiri River any day.
After long occupation, security forces recently left the IB building which is located at a convenient place adjacent to Jiri Bazar and Police station.
As the IB is also housed near the Jiri river embankments, there is high possibility of some of its rooms on north eastern side being flowed by Jiri River, said an official of Jiribam PWD, adding that the building would be damaged by the flow of the river unless it is repaired on time.
Meanwhile, clarifying on a news report published in a local daily recently, the official of PWD Jiribam said that some people were given permission to stay in the IB on humanity ground, as the building was in a pathetic condition to accommodate the VIPs.
No amount of money was charged from the occupants, he clarified, while informing that with the instruction from the higher authority, the building was later vacated.
