Imphal, November 19 2013:
RIMS Director Prof S Shekharjit has lamented that the break down of a portion of the RIMS special ward ceiling was an unfortunate incident which could not be predicted in advance.
Speaking to media persons this morning, Prof Shekharjit said they were aware that the building was an old one but they could not foresee any possible break down of the ceiling.
Conceding that many of the RIMS buildings are very old, the Director said that they have already appealed to the Ministry of Health to look into these old buildings.
He went on to claim that some of the old buildings would be replaced by new ones shortly.
Informing that DPC for recruitment of teaching staff for RIMS Dental College was held from October 7 to 10 last, Shekharjit said that some staff were selected from outside the State based on the DPC results.
Even though there is hardly any candidate qualified for appointment in the Dental College teaching staff, one of the non-local recruited candidate refused to join because of intimidation by some elements.
RIMS authority has already filed a report with police in this regard and the person who intimidated the recruited candidate has been identified through mobile number.
