- DIMAPUR — The
Wokha District Chamber of Commerce & Industry (WDCCI) has warned of an
indefinite business shutdown within its jurisdiction if Nagaland government
fails to address their demand for equitable representation in Urban Local
Bodies (ULBs).
- In a press release issued on Friday, the WDCCI expressed
dissatisfaction with the state government's alleged inaction regarding the
business community's demand.“The chamber is deeply concerned as to why some of
the district chambers, including Wokha district chamber, were denied nomination
by the state government in spite of the fact that each district needs fair
representation to move forward at par with other districts in terms of growth
and development in every sector,” it stated.According to the WDCCI, the issue
was discussed in a joint consultative meeting held on April 23 in Kohima.
During the meeting, state government representatives requested an additional
two weeks to resolve the matter, it stated.“Hence, if the government fails to
address our demand within the stipulated time, WDCCI will go ahead with
indefinite business shutdown within its jurisdiction,” it stated.
