Bishnupur, March 16 2024:
Tangleihada Manipur Kanba Lup (TAMKAL) advisor Oinam Chaoba Meitei has called the cancelling of DPR of hydel water supply overhead tank as unreasonable as it has resulted in Oinam Municipal Council (OMC) Ward No 9 denizens being deprived of drinking water supply for a long period now.
Addressing a press meet held at TAMKAL office on Saturday, O Chaoba stated that though the long pending demand for blacktopping of the road from Oinam Bazar to Oinam Mamang Chingonglei Makhong has been started under the aegis of Oinam MLA 1 Nalini, no proper drainage has been constructed along the roadside.
Hence, the authority concerned should construct the drainage system and finish the blacktopping of the said road at the earliest, he demanded.
Chaoba also drew the attention of OMC and the government towards lack of street lights in Oinam which has made commuting very difficult for people at night.
On the other hand, TAMKAL convener L Ballesor lamented that the inability of the central and state government to resolve the ongoing ethnic conflict which has been going on for more than 10 months now and causing untold suffering to the people of the state.
He appealed to the government to talk with representatives of both the warring communities and restore peace as soon as possible.
He also pointed out that the recent arrest of three members of a proscribed organisation which is in peace talk with the government has confused the public.
