During the visit, MHRC received oral complaints regarding non-availability of drinking water and issues of not providing benefits under MNREGA to the villagers.
The MHRC has directed commissioner/chief engineer of Water Resources Department to hand over the newly constructed building at new Chadong village for establishment of Primary School and Primary Sub Health Centre to the Commissioner (TA & Hills)/Autonomous District Council concerned within a period of 15 days.
It's been almost eight years since the village was completely submerged in 2014 by the water released from the Thoubal dam, and they moved to the new settlement site. Amid their struggles to rebuild their lives, the villagers are beginning to see a ray of hope.
