‘When people start making fun of your dream, trust me it’s no longer a small one’

Hey! Readers! Do you have a phone with you now? If so, please do this. Open your recorder, and record these words by saying out loud, “DON’T LISTEN TO THEM, YOU ARE THE BEST BEING YOU.” Record this now and listen continuously without stopping wherever you walk through and whenever you want to grow in life. Be a deaf when you walk through life, stop listening to others voices except yours.

(Contd from yesterday)
Forget about the state’s own generation and purchase from other sources (which may be deemed as negligible given the fact that Manipur depends 99% on CSGS); the CSGS allocated share of Manipur, i.e. 132 MW, if it is utilized/ made use of sincerely and efficiently, alone should be sufficient enough to give regular uninterrupted power supply of 10-15 hours a day to the consumers as against the existing 4-5 hours a day (that too regularly irregular). Something somewhere is terribly wrong. Rather, someone somewhere or somebody elsewhere is playing a cruel joke at people’s expense. If it is not unscrupulous, shameless and irresponsible (mis) management of power, what is? The power scenario in Manipur is a classic case of MISMANAGEMENT.
