CCpur Mini-secretariat Project
KSO shuts Govt. offices, warns more agitation:
Lamka, Apr 26: Most of the Government offices here ceased the day's chores at 11am today following the KSO, Churachandpur block's diktat to do so in a bid to mark their protest against the Government decision to drop the Rs 40 crore mini-secretariat project.
The KSO protest comes at a time when many intellectuals here were taken aback by the news report on the decision to drop the multi-crore project only in Churachandpur district.
At a press conference later in the day, KSO leaders accused the Government of neglecting the district and questioned on what basis the project had to be dropped.
They also claimed that the project site is not the ground for their agitation today but the decision thereof to drop the project.
Maintaining that location/site of the project doesn't matter for them as long as the project is undertaken in the district, the student leaders said it is the Government that should see the 'right place' for the project.
And, the KSO will accept that decision, irrespective of the site, they said.
Claiming that the KSO has lodged its reservation on the Government's decision, the KSO leaders who addressed the media alongside their counterparts in TKSU said they will wait till Monday for the Government to take 'positive steps'.
However, if the Government still fails to initiate anything concrete by then, they warned of a more intense and severe form of agitation.
"Until that time the Government agrees to resume the project and intimate a clear cut time frame for initiating the same, we will step no inch back,' Sonkhomang, president of TKSU general headquarters, who also addressed the media, said.
