Imphal, May 06 2009:
ACAOM-Lup Kangleipak, a conflormorate of various clubs and social organsiations, has asked all the shops in Paona Bazar and Thangal Bazar of Imphal to put up respective price list of all the goods being sold with effect from April 10 .
Addressing a press conference in this connection at its office today, chief functionaries of ACOAM-Lup asserted that there has been no uniformity in the price of the same goods being sold in the shops of Paona Bazar and Thangal Bazar and the shopkeepers have been charging the price arbitrarily, thus causing confusion among the buyers.
Giving an example, the chief functionaries pointed out that one piece of PBC Triangle cost Rs 65 when purchase from M/s Golden Enterprises, Thangal Bazar while the same item is charged just Rs 35 when bought from Bharat Sales Agency.
The proprietor of M/s Golden Enterprises admitted to the charge and had agreed to put up a signboard in front of his shop telling people not to buy goods from his shop for 10 days as expiation of having charge more from the customers.
