IMPHAL, Jun 23: Youth clubs and Meira Paibis of Keirao Bitra area stopped the pipe laying work for Irilbung Water Supply Scheme for failure to provide adequate water supply to villages in Keirao area from Irilbung Water Supply scheme.
The Irilbung project was completed in 2007 but the surrounding area of Keirao is yet to receive drinking water supply.
Representatives of local CSOs, clubs and Meira Paibis submitted a request for providing adequate water supply to the villages to officials of PHED Imphal East Division, but instead of addressing the demand, pipe laying to supply water to various places in Imphal was sped up, said one of the locals.
