CCpur, August 18 2023:
Churachandpur Post Office (Ccpur MDG) has been unable to conduct normal business since the violence broke out from the district on May 3 .
Since then, staff of the office have been unable to carry out their regular duties due to various challenges.
The primary obstacles include internet shutdown and road blockades between Imphal and Churachandpur imposed by the public on both sides.
Consequently, the residents of the district are experiencing a significant disruption in mail correspondence services.
Sujit Das, a postal assistant stationed at Churachandpur MDG, said numerous difficulties are being faced by the office.
The public has raised several complaints as several applications sent through mail correspondence since May 3, 2023, when internet services were still functional, have not been delivered till date, he added.
Recently an attempt was made to transport a substantial quantity of mail items to Churachandpur.
However, this attempt failed as road was blocked in Bishnupur district and subsequently the consignment had to return to Imphal, Surjit Das added.
