Bishnupur: Ithei canal which has remained clogged for some time was cleaned by the local people of Thanga AC with the local MLA Tongbram Robindro under his sponsorship today.
Around 150 acres of paddy fields in Keirou were completely filled with water due to the incessant rain and the clogging of Ithei irrigation canal worsened the situation.
Speaking to media persons, Robindro stated that the clogging of the canal has halted the rice growth in the Keinou paddy fields and added that he has contributed the fund from his own pocket to clean the canal so that the rice plants can be saved.
