Imphal, June 11 2017:
All Manipur Police Constable (male/civil|) Viva Voce Completed Candidate Fresh Batch 2016 has imposed a 48-hour total shutdown across the State from midnight today.
On the other hand, Chief Secretary O Nabakishore today issued a statement stating that the State Government has already met them twice and added that the matter is under active consideration.
The bandh call is in utter disregard to what the State Government is trying to do, said the Chief Secretary in a statement and added that schools and colleges will function normally.
Moreover all Government offices will remain open and any employee found absent will be considered as being a party to the bandh call, it added.
Withholding results of thousands of candidates despite numerous requests shows that the new State Government led by Chief Minister N Biren has no consideration for the unemployed youth of the State, the association said.
Appealing the public to extend support to their agitation, the association informed that medical emergency, religious activities, water supply, electricity and media will be exempted from the purview of the total shut down.
