Western Sumi Students’ Union (WSSU) served a five-day ultimatum on Dimapur district administration effective from December 2 to crack down on night pubs/clubs, restaurants and hotels that were openly selling liquor on the pretext of running business.
In a letter to Dimapur deputy commissioner (DC) Rajesh Soundarajan, union president A Kughato Achumi and general secretary X Hinoka Chophi regretted that there was no positive response from the former to their November 22 letter in this regard.
They said they were dismayed over the administration’s lack of response, which had chosen to sleep over the issue despite knowing the ground reality, thereby shattering their high hopes and faith.
In the light of the above, WSSU urged the DC to look into the matter on a priority basis and do the needful within a period of five days effective from December 2, failing which they warned that they would have no other option but to resort their own course of action for the welfare of student community and general populace.
