Transport Dept concludes NST GM office enquiry: Meanwhile, speaking on the sidelines of the event, Transport Department OSD Niholu Ayemi informed that the departmental enquiry into allegations at the Nagaland State Transport (NST) General Manager’s office has been concluded.
It may be recalled that in January, several trainees alleged they had received phone calls asking them to report to the GM’s office with original documents and Rs. 10,000 in cash for “paperwork.” The department had clarified that no official was authorised to collect money and ordered a formal enquiry. Ayemi stated that the findings of the enquiry would be made public shortly and assured that appropriate action would follow as directed by the government.
