Tousem in dire need of government attention

IMPHAL | Dec 16

Tousem Area Students’ Organisation (TASO) decried the state government for turning a deaf ears even when Tousem SDO’s camp office at the Tamenglong district headquarter has remained shut for the past five days.

 Even after carrying out the administration of the Tousem subdivision at the district headquarter for the past two decades, the government of Manipur has still not sent its sub-divisional officer, doctors and security personnel to its proper headquarter, said a release.

Of the many disarrays, it is worth mentioning that the said subdivision till date has no teachers in its schools, hospitals are without regular doctors, and even its only ambulance is at the district headquarter, the release mentioned.

Will the government of Manipur ever give the proper attention that the aforementioned area and its people urgently need, the release further stated.

If the state government continues with its irresponsible act and fails to respond to the plight of the people, the civil society organisations in the area will be compelled to intensify their agitations and call a shutdown in the entire Tousem subdivision, including national highways and national projects, the release declared.
