NVCO Tseminyu criticizes “blunder” in RSBY list

Tseminyu, December 14 (MExN): The Nagaland Voluntary Consumers' Organization (NVCO), Tseminyu unit today stated it is “totally against the blunder mistake committed by the Directorate of Health and Family Welfare, Govt. of Nagaland while preparing the name list for enrollment to Rashtriya Swasthya Bima Yojana (RSBY) under Tseminyu Town.”  

A press release from NVCO Tseminyu unit president, John Semy highlighted that there are more than 1500 households under Tseminyu Town; however, when a team came for enrollment of RSBY on December 14, 2016 there were hardly 20-25 household names on the list.  

The citizens, according to the release, were informed that unless their names are listed in the list no other can be enrolled. “Therefore, many citizens who were enrolled in the previous years came with their RSBY Card but that too, was of no help. The citizens of the Tseminyu Town are in chaos with much tension prevailing,” it stated.  

The NVCO unit further informed that when some of the citizens cross checked the enrollment list of Tseminyu Village, it was found that the citizens of Tseminyu Town were enlisted in Tseminyu Village.  

Therefore, NVCO Tseminyu unit has asked the department concerned as to who had prepared the list for enrollment to RSBY for Tseminyu sub-division and “whether the authority knows that Tseminyu Town and Tseminyu Village are two different places.” It demanded the authority to initiate appropriate action against the officer responsible for such blunder. NVCO Tseminyu unit also stated that the authority concerned should fix another date for enrollment of Tseminyu Town with corrected list for the benefit of the citizens.
