Imphal: The government of Manipur is losing in terms of crores of rupees per day due to the bandhs and economic blockade called by the Kuki State Demand Committee (KSDC).

According to a reliable source, the business transaction per day at the international border trade centre owned by the state government of Manipur at the border town Moreh (Indo-Myanmay border) is said to be around Rs 10 to 15 crores and this amount is lost on a daily basis for the last 3 days due to the general strike of the KSDC.

In the meantime, there are many vehicles reported to be stranded at Moreh, Tengnoupal and Pallel which could not leave the area before the general strike was enforced.

All business establishments in the International border trade town Moreh on the Indian side were closed when Newmai News Network visited the area on Wednesday, and the effect of the general strike could also be seen across the border in Namphalong, Myanmar as only about 60% of the shops were open but with very few visitors.

Though the market at Tamu in Myanmar was open, no visitor/buyer from the Indian side could be seen.

The international gate No. 4 through which most of the Burmese and Indians pass through, the road was blocked by putting a wooden log across the road by womenfolk supporting the general strike. (NNN)
