Noney, December 11 2023:
A joint meeting of the Village Councils of Tamenglong area and Longmai (Noney) area was held today at Longmai Bazar community hall regarding the non-release of material components and daily wages of MGNREGA in respect of Tamenglong and Noney districts despite repeated appeals made to the authorities concerned.
The meeting unanimously resolved to hold a mass public rally on December 14, 2023 at every district and sub-divisional Headquarters to be organised by the respective village councils.
It was further decided that placards, pamphlets and posters shall be arranged by the locals however the responsibility for banners and memorandum shall be borne by the civil society organizations (CSOs) of Tamenglong which will be submitted to the District Administrations concerned.
The attendees also resolved to intensify the agitation if the authorities failed to fulfil their demand.
The above resolutions were taken after thorough discussion considering the gravity of the matter and the deprivation of the right to work due to the pending funds.
