DIMAPUR, Sept 14 NNN : Nagaland ministers, Parliamentary Secretaries, MLAs and top bureaucrats will now look after their own security while in station as the state home minister had reportedly directed the state police headquarters to withdraw all security vehicle-escorts.
A leading newspaper based in Dimapur had reported that Nagaland home minister G Kaito Aye had issued this directive as more security personnel are needed for maintaining the worsening law and order.
It reported that the home minister had withdrawn his security escorts last week before issuing this directive. The daily added in its report quoting a senior police officer claiming that some Parliamentary Secretaries and MLAs had already ‘surrendered their escorts’ to the police headquarter.
Following this directive from the Nagaland home minister, some legislators and bureaucrats had expressed displeasure, the Dimapur based daily stated.
It can be noted here that over 600 police personnel were attached with the legislators along with one driver each.
Meanwhile, East Dimapur Tribal Council (EDTC) has lauded the initiative of Nagaland home minister G Kaito Aye.
In a press communique, EDTC said, “It is a very commendable job on the part of the home minister to take such initiatives when the state is in need of more forces for maintaining law and order and also when the world is facing economic crisis.The bold steps by the minister will surely help the state exchequer from where the money spent on those escorts can be used for development purposes.”

IMPHAL, Sep 14 NNN : The premier medical institute of Manipur, Regional Institute of Medical Sciences (RIMS) today celebrated its 42nd anniversary amidst a state wide 12-hour bandh call given by militant outfit Maoist Communist Party (MCP) in protest against the alleged lack of care of the institute in health service.
Meanwhile, the MCP sponsored general strike affected normal life in the state. Streets in the state capital Imphal wore a deserted look with the Khwairamband bazaar remaining shut for the day. Traffic was totally out of sight in the capital.
Both the inter-state and inter-district bus services were halted due to the strike. Government and business establishments were also closed due to it.
The MCP imposed the bandh from 5 am to 5 am Saturday. The outfit has blamed the Regional Institute of Medical Sciences (RIMS) for negligence in providing medical care to the people. It had said the strike was called on September 14, the foundation day of RIMS to protest against its laxity in its health care system. Meanwhile, a 27-year-old woman died in the RIMS ICU shortly before a CS operation delivery was to perform at the hospital last night. Registering a protest against the death, hundreds of locals staged sit-in at Lamshang bazaar.
Aheibam Bijeta, wife of A Sanatomba, a resident of Lamshang bazaar in Imphal West district died after she had medication to deliver her first baby through CS operation. The family said Bijeta died due to negligence of the attending doctors.
In the meantime, RIMS celebrated its anniversary at the Jubilee Hall of the institute.
The celebration was also attended by Lok Sabha MP T Meinya, RIMS Director S Sekharjit, MLA L Nandakumar, Prof Ibopishak, Jawaharlal Nehru Institute of Medical Sciences. Sekharjit in his speech delivered on the occasion said RIMS was first established in 1972 with the name Regional Medical College under the North Eastern Council.
He said the institute has so far produced 1, 057 Post Graduates (PGs), 2, 538 Bachelor of Medicines and Bachelor of Surgery (MBBS) and three Masters of Chirurgical (MChs).
Sekharjit said, “We are putting efforts to bring more development of the institute that has over 1, 800 employees.” It now also has a Dental College that was opened on August 28 last, he added. Lok Sabha MP Meinya appealed to the underground groups not to make any kind of trouble in the hospital and underscored the need for further improvement of the institute and get ready for joining the global competition.
He said, “We need to work hard in today’s highly competitive world especially in the field of education. We need to imitate the Chinese work culture.”
Several good medical students were honoured awards on the occasion. Two journals including RIMS Newslettter and Remedy were also released during the function. A cultural programme was also held to mark the day.
