DIMAPUR, AUGUST 10 (MExN): The Shamator Town Public Forum (STPF), Shamator Town Students’ Union (STSU) and the Yimchungberü Arihako Shamator Area (YASA) have decided not to participate nor extend cooperation to the August 15 Independence Day observance as a sign of protest against the “lackadaisical and discriminatory attitude of the State Government towards the public of Shamator area and adjoining villages.”
A joint statement from the three organisations said that the public have been aggrieved by non-availability of ADC and EAC of Shamator ADC Hq and the SDO (C) of Chessore Hq. “It is disheartening to state that the trio administrative officers were transferred out in the month of May 2017 and their relievers not deployed till date. The action of the State Government is beyond normal human tolerance,” it added.
