Imphal, November 17 2023:
Zeliangrong Students' Union Manipur (ZSUM) has condemned alleged inaction of state government that has led to delay in the tender process for the 'Rehabilitation and strengthening of Bishnupur-Nungba (Rengpang) road' consequent to diversion of traffic for construction of NH-37 in Manipur.
In a release, ZSUM pointed out that the tender process started following a notification issued on August 18, 2023 and the work was supposed to be completed within 12 months.
Stating that the tender process needs to be completed without any further delay so that the work may commence immediately in public interest, it lamented that despite pressing for implementation of the work, no positive action could be visible.
The fund for the work had been sanctioned as emergency allocation, but the tender process is yet to be completed.
ZSUM also cautioned that it may be compelled to take up strong auction if the work is not executed at the earliest possible.
