CCpur, February 06 2024:
Condemning alleged move/pro-cess by the District Transport Officer (DTO) to relocate the machine for generating smart card and other relevant equipment to Imphal, Joint Students' Body (JSB) shut down the office of the DTO on Tuesday.
Sources said that the transport officer has been staying and working from Imphal since May 3 by issuing directives to his subordinate officials.
A press release issued by JSB contended that the student body interfered when the transport officer ordered staffers in the office to arrange for transportation of the smart card processing machine and other equipment to Imphal.
Talking to this correspondent, JSB convenor Nengzalian Tonsing said they were against centralisation of everything including office infrastructure in Imphal.
As a show of protest they shut down the DTO office and kept the machineries at safe place, the convenor added.
