Demonetization and my experience, an inch away from a punch

Introduction: "The images on television are troubling. Harassed people queuing for hours. An elderly man, obviously quite sick, crying helplessly. The hospital wouldn’t admit him for the required surgery nor would the chemist sell him the drugs he needed because his money had ceased to be legal tender. A lady crying, her husband had just died because no hospital would admit him. The treatment money she had had suddenly become worthless. Frustration is widespread, patience is running thin, and there are worrying reports about incidents of violence, fortunately still isolated. It is a challenging moment for the country. It is a pity that instead of empathizing with the people in the queues, some TV panellists are dismissing their plight or even provocatively asserting that all complainants must be black-money wallas or terrorist sympathizers. Let’s step back from emotion and dispassionately consider the consequences of the demonetization shock" writes LiveMint.

‘Man Made flood like stituation in Lamka town’

Greater cooperation is necessary to protect the natural drainage systems since there is no renovative plan for improvement of the drainage system in Lamka town.

The natural rivulets or watercourse in and around Lamka town overflowed mainly due to human encroachment. There are no proper drainage systems in the town and localities. Even those which already existed waterway are also encroached to the extend that when a little amount of water flows, it could not accomodate. The problem not only lies with the inefficiency of the civic body but also the unplanned and improper development of the town.

Geographical features and contiguity district or on Ethnic Based District

Geographical features and contiguity district or on Ethnic Based District

I have traveled to the length and breadth of Manipur, I have visited every nook and corner. What I often pondered on while crossing district boundaries is "This is the reason why the valley and the Hills always bla bla bla".

Coming down from Maphou dam [the end of Imphal East district which is under Saikul division] to Moirangpurel GP, then moving down to Changamdabi and Yambem GPs, further crossing Top Chingtha and Keirao gram panchayats. It sometimes looks so funny that the river and its basin which its breadth is less than a kilometre is being administered under Imphal East District. The Thoubal river is surrounded by Ukhrul and Senapati district hill ranges. Coming down to Ngarian hills. The hills which is under Senapati is again surrounded by the valley which falls under Imphal East district. Those villages which are on the hills have to come to Saikul for official works. On interesting development is that, those villages took part in GP elections of the valley as well as MLA election under Senapati.
