Sir,
Please refer to the news item published in your paper Imphal Free Press dated 28/01/2011 on the front page under heading “TRANSPORTERS TO STOP PLYING ON NH-39”.
2. The news published is totally baseless as the truck drivers and operators are plying their vehicles without any fear or threat from any insurgent outfit under the CRPF protection. Even today a special convoy consisting of 191 vehicles is plying on NH-39. It is further, to inform that CRPF is committed to provide foolproof security to the truck and the truck drivers carrying food grains , POL items, medicines and other essential commodities to the state through NH-39 as also at the time of loading of trucks and during their stay in the FCI/IOC campus.
3.The rejoinder may please be published accordingly.
Yours faithfully,
M.S. Raghava,
DIG(ADM/OPS)
