Meitei internally displaced persons (IDP) groups in Manipur have called for the immediate disbursement of delayed assistance from the Department of Biotechnology (DBT), citing prolonged delays that are affecting their livelihoods.
Meitei internally displaced persons (IDP) groups in Manipur have formally demanded the immediate release of assistance that has been delayed by the Department of Biotechnology (DBT). The aid, originally scheduled for distribution earlier this year, has not yet been disbursed, leaving many IDPs in a precarious situation.
The groups have approached both the state government and DBT officials, urging swift action to address the prolonged delay. They argue that the continued hold on funds is exacerbating the hardships faced by displaced families.
While the state authorities have not yet issued a public statement on the matter, the IDP representatives remain steadfast in their request for an expedited release of the funds. They emphasize the urgency of the situation, noting that the delay is impacting essential needs such as shelter, food, and medical care.
The outcome of the appeal will likely influence the ongoing support for IDPs in the region, as the community continues to seek relief from the extended wait for government assistance.
