Around 100 Liangmai vendors will sell their produce at the market.

As the Liangmai community settled in Kangpokpi face hurdles in selling their produce owing to the restive situation in Manipur, the 9-member Liangmai-Imphal Market Committee was formed.

Saying this, he once again sought public support for the market set up by the Liangmais from Kangpokpi district.

He urged the public of Imphal to come and check out the market and buy the organic produce for sale.
