Imphal, February 07 2018: Referring to the assurance given by Forest and Environment Minister Th Shyamkumar that the misappropriation case of Rs 50,20,73,010 sanctioned to Forest Department for treatment of catchment areas and biodiversity conservation by LDA would be investigated, BJP MLA Samuel Jendai suggested the Government to rope in an independent body like CBI to investigate the case.

Raising the matter during zero hour in the State Assembly today, Samuel Jendai asserted that misappropriation of such a huge amount of public demands a thorough enquiry.

Congress MLA Kh Joykisan said that he heard two/three gun shots near Khurai Sajor Leikai at around 5.30 pm yesterday when he went to attend a function ofhis friends.

On the way back, a large number of Meira Paibis were seen on the road.

On enquiry, it was said that someone came to the residence of one Laishram Bishwajit at Khurai Sajor Leikai and fired two/three rounds of shots, Joykisan informed the House.

The incident happened at the capital city and when the Assembly session is going on, Joykisan pointed out while questioning the inaction of police even after somebody made a life attempt on another.

He also asked the Chief Minister to give a statement on the matter even though it was zero hour.
