Manipur: Tedim Road bandh | CDSU reaffirms

Taking strong exception against the continuing land acquisition process for expansion of Imphal airport which is contrary to the joint understanding between the CM, the Transport Minister and the JAC Against the Acquisition of Land for Expansion and Extension of Imphal Airport, the JAC has threatened to impose total bandh along Tiddim road indefinitely from January 19 in case the Govt fails to respond by January 18.

A release issued by the JAC also noted the fast shrinking agricultural land of the State due to the so called development and moder-nisation projects. The Govt’s initiative to acquire 700 acres of land for Imphal airport expansion includes a large tract of agricultural land.

CDSU reaffirms

IMPHAL, Jan 15: The Churachandpur District Students’ Union (CDSU) in a joint meeting with its parent bodies has reaffirmed that no organisation should not simply impose bandh/strike in the district no matter how genuine their issues may be without the prior consent and approval of CDSU and ITLC, reports our CCpur correspondent.
