Following a thorough discussion, the meeting resolved to form a new committee to ensure the Supply Scheme serve the purpose and sub mit relevant documents to authorities concerned for official recognition of the new committee.
Speaking to the media, Ideal Youth Club secretary Kh Abothoi informed that primary objective of the meeting was to ensure the proper functioning of the water supply scheme.
Representatives of local clubs, organisations, Atoukhong GP, administrative committee members and local residents were invited to contribute to a productive discussion.
