ATRPFM appeals

IMPHAL, Aug 4
The All Tribal Rights’ Protection Forum Manipur (ATRPFM) has denounced the State Government for non-disbursement of funds to the beneficiaries of Family Oriented Schemes under Tribal Affairs and Hills, Government of Manipur for the financial year of 2018-19 and 2019-20 till date.
The union Government has already released the sanctioned amount to the State Government, however, the State Government is not disbursing the amounts sanctioned to the beneficiaries till date even after a lapse of a year and 5 months since the end of the last financial year, said ATRPFM.
If the State Government and the authorities/department concerned do not disburse and credit the approved amount to the bank accounts of the beneficiaries, ATRPFM will seek remedies from the Union Ministry of Tribal Affairs and also file PIL before the High Court of Manipur, said the statement.
