The company has begun constructing 200 houses each in Yai Thibi Lou Kol of Thoubal, Sajiwa of Imphal East, Sawom-bung of Imphal East, and Kwakta of Bishnupur District.
The Company is also awaiting orders from Kakching DC for the construction of another 200 houses at Yai Thibi Lou Kol in Thoubal District for the affected people of Kakching District.
The Government had given 20 days to complete the construction, but due to weather conditions, there has been a delay.
Earlier, Manipur Chief Minister N Biren Singh had announced that the government would construct more than 3000 prefabricated houses in the state to accommodate the displaced persons whose houses were burnt or destroyed during the recent violence. The CM had inspected some of the locations where these houses are being built.
