Imphal, December 22 2023:
The Public Health Engineering Department (PHED), Government of Manipur, has informed all concerned that the intake unit of the Chinga WTP will not be operational for a few days due to an unprecedented act of thievery from the premises of the intake unit.
A release issued by PHED also claimed that the wires (a vital component of the intake motors) connecting the motors with the main switch for operating the intake pumps were found stolen last night leaving the intake unit of the Chinga WTP non-operational.
Strongly condemning the theft especially during these prevailing unrest situations, the Department asserted that those supposed thieves should be aware of the fact that their actions have serious repercussions on one of the basic requirements of the public.
PHED further informed that the Chinga WTP will not be able to supply piped water to its consumers for a few days until new wires are installed properly to continue proper functioning of the intake unit.
