By Ram Wangkheirakpam
It is a worrisome trend that all the streets of Imphal have become car and motor bike parking area. The whole stretch on both sides of Babupara road where offices like BSNL, Old and New Secretariat, Transport Department, Police Department, CM Bungalow and Post office are situated have become parking lots. The roads of Paona Market, Nupi Keithel and Thangal Market have become parking area for cars and motor bikes and are a nightmare for all. Even those who wanted to come and buy things are not able to access the market easily anymore.
Try cycling or even walking on both sides of PWD office, it is full of cars and motor bikes. They have occupied almost half the road space. Then also try inside Gandhi Avenue area, Nirmalabas School, Nirmala Hotel, Shops – you are just overwhelmed by vehicles parked over there and mindless honking of cars and bikes.
While in some places, walking spaces have been converted into car parks like the one in front of the electricity department, cycling has become extremely difficult as the safer road side has been taken over by parking lots. Even the footpaths of Imphal Hotel have become a car park – imagine the boldness of the hotel owner to put ‘Parking’ signs on a Footpath.
Why is it that municipality, traffic department don’t understand the need to leave road sides free from parking as this space is used by pedestrians and bicyclist. The fact that these departments are allowing cars and bikes to park on road side indicates their sheer insensitivity to those who cycle and sheer lack of understanding that by making cycling difficult you are pushing them to take up cars or bikes as means of transport which then increases traffic and need for more parking, and that too in a state where there is no public transport system.
In a recent announcement, the government decided to convert underground of Nupi Keithel into a car park. This is the second such space, after the covered Naga River which was supposed to accommodate cars and bikes for parking so that they do not enter the bazar area. We are also informed from reliable sources that there will be more multi parking spaces coming up in Imphal area. An indication of insatiable car parks from ever increasing car owners!
The faulty logic of all these is that, we need to provide space for parking for the ever increasing number of cars and motor bikes; and the thinking of car owners that it is their right to get a private parking space in a public land (such as road). The idea of providing more and more spaces for parking to cars and motor bikes is a skewed motor friendly policy where it only helps increase in their population. And in the absence of a pro cycling and walking environment or a policy, you end up forcing those walking and cycling to shift to cars or motorbikes.
One should ask, whether the roads of Paona and Thangal Market and other places around the market will be freed from parking if the cars and bikes goes under Ima Keithel or will it be that it will become an additional occupation of yet another ‘free’ space by an ever increasing demand by car and motorbike owners!
If we agree that our streets are crowded, jammed and polluted and that cars and motor bikes are eating up our roads and cycling and walking spaces, and that we cannot continue to expand our roads anymore then we must find a solution all together.
Urban land is valuable and scarce. The government must levy high parking fee that represents value of land occupied possibly equivalent to the real estate value. Graded parking fee can recover the cost of the land, which might mean that car parking in Paona Market can cost 50-100 or more for an hour which currently is 20 for whole day! If there are arguments such as those of households in the market area, then they must make their own parking within their plot. They cannot expect to use public road for their private parking. And for those shopkeepers, cars and bikes are not the best way to come as it adds up to the traffic and the noise. And if one is buying bulky items then there can be service available such as home delivery, rickshaw or bike carrier or even a trolley that can help you carry to your car or home. There are also arguments of the shopkeepers that they are not able to sell goods if Paona and Thangal market is made vehicle free. The alternative argument is that, once you free up the road from vehicles then more buyers can access the market which otherwise is occupied by vehicles. Most importantly, it will be pollution and noise free which is good for the health of shopkeepers in the long run. One need no reminder here that there is real health effects when exposed to vehicular emission and noise.
Public transport vehicles and non-motorised modes of transport should be given preference while designing roads and for allocating parking space. They should be privileged for the fact that they pollute less and carry more people unlike a car which in most cases carry one or two passengers and occupies more space than a public transport. Like in the past, buses can be allowed to ply through Paona and Thangal market with proper stops where commuters can hop in or hop out and can even can carry their goods. In case of other parking lots, like the stretch of CM Office and Secretariat the government can discourage parking by charging fees that matches economic and social cost.
The moot question is about, reducing cars and their parkings and not increasing it. In fact, more provision for parking means encouraging car buyers and car users. Cutting parking spaces will mean cleaner city, less pollution, less noise, and a better place to live and work – in short a livable Imphal.

Following the leaked reports regarding NGOs and their funding by the Intelligence Bureau (IB), another news report in the New Indian Express mentions an investigation by the Research and Analysis
Following the leaked reports regarding NGOs and their funding by the Intelligence Bureau (IB), another news report in the New Indian Express mentions an investigation by the Research and Analysis Wing (RAW or R&AW) into ‘shady dealings of NGOs’, saying that there are funding patterns that links to insurgent groups in the Northeast. It mentions of a Netherlands-based group, Landlijke India Werkgroep (LIW) which is funded by CORDAID, earlier named in the IB report and says LIW maintains close contact with a number of dissident groups from the Northeast, including the NDFB and ULFA. It helpfully mentions that both the armed outfits have been designated as terrorist organizations by the government. What it does not mention is that both are in talks with the Government with whom it has ceasefire agreements. By pulling up instances of NGOs in the region having their licenses cancelled due to financial irregularities (with 125 NGOs in Manipur getting the axe in 2012 alone), the New Indian Express report smacks of an attempt to color all NGOs in the state and the region with one stroke that says ‘wrong.’
Some have begun to question the timing of the media leaks given that in the midst of all the scampering to defend the track record of NGOs and their activities, the Government has taken the decision of raising the height of the Narmada dam, a move that has been vehemently protested by activists and the NGO community. Another decision is that of easing off rules with regard to the Forest Rights Act and Forest Conservation Act to step up economic activities (that would definitely mean extensive mining, deforestation of forest reserves which have been in the control of indigenous tribal’s) in Naxal-affected states. The earlier Government that was mulling these decisions were met with active protests and agitations from the NGOs but with this very timely leak, the BJP Government is effectively closing the door on an active and unified civil protest. The very clever manner in which ‘national interests’ have been raised by pointing an accusing finger at ‘foreign donors’ means that there will be a lot more voices calling for NGOs who have been in protest mode to go into mute mode.
There is a need to question why protests aimed at major hydro-electric projects that will snatch the livelihood and safe haven of indigenous population, not to mention wrecking the flora and fauna of the area; or those against rampant mining and drilling of forest reserves should be called going against ‘national interests’. Aren’t indigenous populations part of the nation whose interests also need to be ensured or are they just collateral damage all in the name of progress and development? If there is no easy way to answer which is the lesser evil between maintaining forest reserves and other natural resources on one hand and pandering to the needs of energy generation for a booming population, then perhaps the answer lies in whose interests such actions are being taken. If the natural resources of a region or area are to be tapped for the commercial profit of the private corporate and passed on to the more better off region of the country, there would need to be a serious rethinking of whether citizenship is a class-tist phenomenon.
Here, it must be added that NGOs also need to factor in transparency and accountability in terms of its area of activities and operations. But more than not, the NGO sector has also come to take on the nature of a cottage industry with more and more hoardings coming up day by day. Many are run like family enterprises with power of control being in the hands of family members while a great many NGOs are fronted by family members of serving or retired Government officials, bureaucrats and even MLAs and Ministers. Perhaps if either the IB or the RAW had come up with an extensive report on just how many NGOs have links with Government functionaries and how much of funds are being actually translated into action, that would have been more welcome and been an indication of intent to make things work for improving the quality of life for the common man and women. In any case, India’s spy organizations have never been known to work in tandem but in close competition against each other and the RAW investigation could also be an exercise to score a brownie point since the IB has got its own score.

By A Staff Reporter

The state Joint Secretary (works) has rejected the proposal of Regional Directorate by stating that there is no suitable plot to accommodate the proposed office of Regional Directorate of Works’ Education on February 13 1991.

By R Lester Makang
UKHRUL, June 23: As the already pitiable condition of road in Ukhrul town is fast worsening with the onset of rainy season, the day-to-day life of the common man here is put to great peril and hardship.
The sole one-way (main) road running through the heart of the township has been in poor shape since the last many months. Its surface had been filled with pot holes at many portions and remained dusty during dry season. With the seasonal monsoon setting in, the damaged road is proving sheer purgatory for the residents as it is virtually turned into marshy ground at various places.
Fuming vehemently at the nightmarish road conditions, H Tuishimla, a housewife said that crossing the vegetable vendors’ point at Phungreitang during this rainy season is nothing short of hell and is dangerous for both motorists and padestrians since the road is mostly covered with slippery mass of mud.
“It has been only few years since the town road was last re-layed by the BRTF but it had been broken at various places months before the current monsoon rains,” said Akham a resident of Hamleikhong, while contending that this shows engineering quality of construction on the authority’s part.
The main town road basically extends from Dungrei Hundung Junction to Kasomtang Junction and the stretch has developed innumerable pot holes over the last many months — some so severe that they appear small ponds on the roadway.
“The authorities had also recently filled the potholes along the stretch from Phungreitang to Wino bazaar with chip stones and cobbles to extend its motorability, but to no avail, Akham added.
Apparently, all this while the authorities seem to remain indifferent to the growing woes of the public due to bad road.
Meanwhile, efforts to cull official comments from the PWD Ukhrul division have failed. The executive engineer nor any staff of the department was available when this IFP correspondent dropped in during office hour on Monday.

Elaborating on his travelogue Chinglon Amadagi Amada portraying his journey outside the state, he stated that without literature any form of art is meaningless.
