  • MOKOKCHUNG — The Ao Students’ Conference (AKM) on Saturday issued a stern directive to KC Infra Projects Pvt. Ltd., ordering an immediate halt to all construction activities at Dr. Imkongliba Memorial District Hospital (IMDH) in Mokokchung, effective May 31, until a designated evaluation team conducts a thorough inspection and grants clearance.

  • The move follows concerns over ongoing repairs to structural cracks despite a pending assessment, raising fears of compromised safety and quality.

  • In a statement addressed to the Guwahati-based contractor, AKM expressed alarm that construction and repair work continued at the site, ignoring calls for a technical evaluation.

  • “Until and unless the evaluation team conducts a thorough inspection and provides official clearance, all construction activities must be halted immediately and remain suspended until further notice,” the statement declared, emphasising transparency and adherence to standards.

  • The AKM warned that failure to comply would force the conference to escalate actions, signalling potential protests or legal measures.

  •  “We urge KC Infra Projects Pvt. Ltd. to cooperate and demonstrate responsibility by adhering to this directive without delay,” the statement added.

  • The hospital project, sanctioned in 2018 under the National Health Mission with a INR 13.70 crore budget, has faced criticism for delays, substandard materials, and structural flaws, including visible cracks reported during a May 21 inspection.
