Imphal, October 27 2008:
A newly constructed market shed was inaugurated today at Chandel district Hqs by Chandel A/C MLA Thangkholun Haokip.
The market shed was constructed under the Development of Urban Infrastructure in Hill Areas.
Speaking at the inaugural function as chief guest, Thangkholun Haokip hailed the initiative of the SPF Government to develop infrastructure in hill constituencies by providing Rs 2 crores each every year under MAHUD Department.
From the amount provided under the scheme, drainage system, garbage disposal facility, market sheds and other infrastructure are being developed in Chandel A/C, he said.
Noting that proper utilisation of the annual amount of Rs 2 crores sanctioned to each constituency would help a lot in the development of Chandel district, the MLA sought cooperation from public leaders, civil societies and the general public towards timely completion of all projects under construction as well as other works that may be taken up in future.
In his presidential address, Chandel DC N Ashokumar asserted that proper implementation of development projects in Chandel district would benefit all the people of the district.
The inaugural function was also attended by many district level
officers.
Later, MLA Thangkholun inspected the Chandel district hospital, newly built drainage system and the garbage disposal facility.
The MLA was visibly pleased in seeing the drainage system and garbage disposal system constructed with due emphasis on quality.
