Moreh, December 22 2022:
On the second day of the 20-day river clean-up programme for cleaning Khujailok and Lailok Turel, Khujailok & Lailok Environment Protection Committee (KLEPCO), Moreh members collected plastics and wastes from Khujailok River in Moreh ward no 9 Khunou Leikai and transported the waste for disposal on Thursday.
Speaking in this regard, KLEPCO chairman Kaikholen Haokip appealed to the people of Moreh to refrain from communal ideas and join hands in cleaning Khujailok and Lailok rivers, which are very important for the people of Moreh.
The rivers might even get extinct if they are filled with plastics and other wastes, he cautioned, while adding that it will also become a place for spreading various diseases.
He further appealed to Moreh denizens not to throw waste into the two rivers.
