On 17th oct. 2016, My Article was published in this media relating to the Chumu Taxi counter incident, where the ANTA Dimapur replied me, need to be clarified . I came with this write up because i have suffered and felt humiliated as i was chased as if i have done something wrong. I have a reason to say therefore i once again request ANTA to listen to my reason. In my previous Article in the last para, i requested ANTA central to look into the matter for the welfare of the passengers but to my surprise it was Dimapur Unit, calling me to approach their office. In my previous statement i have not even mentioned the name of a place Dimapur. It was between me and Chumu counter, that is why i came back to lodge a complaint at Chumu counter but the person whom i approached said he is only a driver. The two persons claiming to be ANTA Officials who chased me till Chumu NAP gate, can not take case as they were against me.
The ANTA Dimapur Unit stated that they have investigated the case but i have a question, why they took information from only one side? and claiming that i have twisted the incident story. I have no issue with ANTA in the past as i don’t travel by Taxi. It is all because for my relatives, i chased the taxi knowing that every citizen have the right to choose taxi if the driver agreed. The ANTA Dimapur Unit also mentioned that my press statement was for my personal motive but being a Government servant, why should i move it for my personal interest.
My statement was not to defame someone but i have freedom of expression as we have freedom of association.
Please let someone admit their mistake instead of protecting their fault. The argument can increase endlessly but that won’t do. What has happened have happened so never risk with strong step without hearing from both sides.
