MOKOKCHUNG, APRIL 17 (MExN): The Mangkolemba Ao Lanur Telongjem (MALT) has written to the Principal Director, Directorate of Treasuries and Accounts, expressing concern that the Sub Treasury, Mangkolemba Branch is yet to be shifted from the Senior Treasury Office in Mokokchung, where it has been attached for the last twenty years. The new Sub Treasury Office building at Mangkolemba has been completed for around one year now, stated the MALT. It reminded that this failure to shift the office till date, “is in utter contrast to the official order from the Principal Director, Department of Treasuries & Accounts dated February 13, 2014,” wherein it was stated that that the Sub Treasury Office building at Mangkolemba has been already completed and the functioning of the Sub-Treasury and its transaction will start with effect from April 1, 2014. The MALT expressed dismay over “departmental failure to shift the sub treasury establishment, made functional for the citizens of the sub division.” “This is denying the citizens from getting their due services and privileges,” it stated. The MALT called upon the department to look into the matter with “utmost sensitivity” and to disclose the reason behind the current situation. It cautioned that failure to shift the office and to start its functioning at the earliest would attract “more potent steps from our organization and also the various NGOs of Mangkolemba sub division.”
