The government teachers from 541 state-run schools, who drew their salaries under plan fund, had not been paid since October as the required allocation, about Rs 63.11 crore, was not sanctioned in the plan fund. Now I have received my salaries due from October in full.
I am truly happy that I will able to buy new Christmas clothes for my children, said Vanlalhriati, a middle-school teacher. People from all walks of life are thronging the city s markets as Christmas draws nearer.
The city streets already congested with vehicles and pedestrians has literally turned into a sea of shoppers.
To ease the problems of the shoppers, the state government is declaring a two-kilometre stretch of the city s main road that runs through the main market a no vehicle zone for two days, December 23 and 24, with the exception of ambulances and emergency services.
The city police have set up three temporary beat posts within the main market vicinity to curb increasing crimes in this time of year like pick-pocketing, robbery, burglary, bootlegging and drug-peddling.
