IMPHAL, June 27: The Highway Truck Owner`™s Welfare Organsiation has decried the indefinite economic blockade called along all national highways.

A statement of the organisation said at a time when the world over, people are working to develop the economy considering `Time is money`™, Manipur is bogged down by agitations like the economic blockade.

It asked as to whether the people of the hills districts who resort to economic blockades every year, are actually against economic development.

It further questioned whether the ATSUM Maun Tombing group was making their demands to the State government or to the people of the State.

Any demand could be made through proper dialogue with the government, the organisation said.

Meanwhile setting June 30 as the deadline for both the organisation and the government to bring an amicable solution to the issue and end the blockade, it warned that the organisation in collaboration with other like-minded organisations will launch stern agitation against both the ATSUM and the government incase the deadline is not met.
