Lotha Students’ Union express concern; urges the government to take up the matter seriously
WOKHA, MARCH 17 (MExN): The Lotha Students’ Union (LSU) today expressed concern at the move by certain contractors to seal the GHSS building, Wokha and Divisional Forest Officer Office, Wokha due to non- payment of pending bills against the contract works executed.
The LSU, in a press note today urged the concerned department and the government to take up the matter seriously and on priority to consider the grievances of the aggrieved contractors. It asked the issue be negotiated towards an acceptable settlement in the interest of the student community.
The LSU further stated that it does not endorse the adopting of “such primitive and irrational method of expressing resentment on the part of the contractors.” “The contractors are expected to take up proper and legitimate action to address their grievances and not by way of resorting to such illogical manner of sealing the Government establishments particularly and Educational institution,” it said.
Stating that the LSU would not tolerate such unpleasant circumstances affecting the academic careers of the students, it asked for an early settlement of the issue. The LSU further cautioned that failure to address this concern within 15 days would compel the LSU to “take its own course of action to protect the rights and interest of the student community.”
