It seems it needed some students to initiate a price check campaign , that after 40 days the tie-coat suite loving, english speaking Imphal DC , have finally got himself out of his comfy chair and decided to do a price check list from our ‘VERY POOR ‘ businessmen , who are striving hard to make some money during this crisis time .
I am fortunate to hear this news from one my freinds on facebook and thought of sharing this .a price list have been submitted by the ‘POOR SHOPKEEPERS’ community and have submitted a price list of commodities being sold in Kawramband Keithel . here are some of the price list – price list is the 10 pc charge on retail price. Here is the price list….
1) Hangam Thou (Mustard oil ) 15 kg tin—–Rs 1320 to Rs 1350 per tin
2) Pam oil 15 kg tin—–Rs 1200 to Rs 1220 per tin
3) Potato—–Rs 22 per kg
4) Onion—–Rs 35 per kg
5) Hawai Mang-gan—–Rs 38 per kg
6)kang-tak ( matar ) —–Rs 41 per kg

Dear Readers , I know that it is hard stepping out from our own comfort zones and but it would make a huge difference if we could step out especially during this time and share our concerns atleast with our words and opinions . These burecrats and ministers need to be told again and again especially by right thinking educated individuals for in such we can build a very vocal society where the voices speak sense and responsibility .
At the moment , we don’t speak for it seems we don’t even have the ‘courage’ to formed / voiced our opinions.Or is it lack of any ‘will’ on our part .
The DC took 40 days to do some of his duties which should have been done even before the crisis started . but how long are we going to take to even formed an opinion leave alone any formed of pro-active actions .
Or are we just going to find the reasons behind our lack of activity , the abscence of even ideas or is it just a reflection of a Laisu heitaba mindset where we are more focus on self serving ideas and works !!

Dear Elangbam
Glad that you aired your concern about the grave situation in the state.
I also share disappointment, with the authority who had fail to do the needful, we the people who have also fail to raise to the occasion.
Though voices and concerns (here and elsewhere) are good, I feel it is not serving any purpose.
Either we have to chipped in all the opinions and the comments generated thereupon into a consolidate message or whatever it is and direct it to the whomsoever concern through a letter or by way of publishing in whatever form till it reaches the destined ear.
Or else all this will be just another blog/article, a few comments (which may not go places) here and there and it’s lost sooner than later.

It’s not long that we all will starve to death. The central Govt and the state, they are all the same. They have their own personal needs to be fulfilled.
