To be loved by our people is one of the greatest feelings one can ever experience.
My heartfelt thanks to the youths of Keisampat Thokchom Leikai for visiting me yesterday and gifting me a T-shirt on the occasion of Diwali.
It is the love and affection of my people that inspire me to work harder and remain committed to serving them with dedication. At the end of the day, love, trust and respect are the most precious things in life. They are also the greatest sources of strength and motivation.
Thank you for your love. It means more than words can express.

Glimpses from the inauguration of the Overhead Reservoir and Water Tank at Sagolband Tera, a significant step towards ensuring a more reliable and adequate water supply to the adjoining localities of Sagolband.
With the initiative of constructing another overhead reservoir at Bijoy Govinda under the AMRUT 2.0 Scheme, we are steadily progressing towards our vision of making Sagolband the first constituency in Manipur to achieve 24/7 water supply in the coming years.
This pilot project reflects our continued commitment to public welfare, better infrastructure, and an improved quality of life for our people.
Together, we move forward towards a better and more developed Sagolband.

Yes, we have successfully completed the blacktopping of the road stretch from Mabudhou Mantri Leikai to Akham Lampak, well ahead of the inauguration of the newly constructed retaining walls of the pond, along with its beautification works.
Our commitment remains to ensure better infrastructure and development across all localities, continuing the progress achieved over the last 14.5 years.
Next, we are targeting the blacktopping of Kwakeithel Hourakchambi ahead of the inauguration of the newly constructed double storey club building and the pond retaining walls on 14th November.

Delighted to inaugurate the Overhead Water Tank and Reservoir at Sagolband Tera, under the Manipur Water Supply Project supported by the New Development Bank (NDB). Over the past 14.5 years, Sagolband has witnessed remarkable progress in its water supply infrastructure, with access to adequate drinking water reaching most localities.
When I began my political journey, several localities in Sagolband depended on polythene and GI pipelines. Today, those old pipelines are being replaced with durable DI pipelines, ensuring a stronger and more reliable water supply network across the constituency.
Another significant milestone is the 24/7 Water Supply Scheme at Bijoy Govinda, where construction has already reached 20%. This pilot project is an important step towards positioning Sagolband at the forefront of round the clock drinking water supply, first of it’s kind in Manipur.
Development is not just about promises, it is about delivering lasting improvements that transform people’s lives. Our commitment remains unwavering, to build quality infrastructure, ensure better public services, and create a more developed Sagolband that contributes to a stronger and more prosperous Manipur.

As mentioned earlier, we have ensured that the blacktopping works at Sagolband Salam Leikai and Keisampat Mutum Leirak have been completed.
Our responsibility is to ensure that infrastructure development reaches every locality of Sagolband. While we have made considerable progress towards this goal, our efforts continue.
As legislators, we do not directly build roads. Our role is to identify the needs of the people, raise them with the concerned departments and ensure that the necessary programmes and projects are taken up by the government for implementation.
Pleased to note that several infrastructure projects across Sagolband have witnessed significant progress, bringing development closer to the people.

The concrete laying work has commenced at Kwakeithel Thounaojam Leikai following the successful completion of FDR (Full Depth Reclamation), under the Rigid Pavement Program in Sagolband.

Meanwhile, the construction of drains in the locality is also nearing completion, ensuring improved drainage infrastructure alongside better roads.
FDR works are also scheduled to commence at Paona Bazaar, Wahengbam Leikai, Kwakeithel Mayaikoibi, Thiyam Leikai and other localities as per the tentative schedule prepared in coordination with the department.
Step by step, we remain committed to strengthening infrastructure, improving connectivity, and ensuring lasting development across Sagolband.

We began our journey together 20 years ago, when we were in our 30s, even before I contested my first election. Those were the days when I would drive us around as we went from place to place, meeting people and laying the foundation of our political journey.
Over these two decades, we have shared a lifetime of memories, witnessed countless highs and lows, and stood together through every challenge. From the Congress denying me a ticket in 2007 and 2012 to the proud moments of winning three consecutive elections, this journey has taught us the true meaning of perseverance, faith and the power of staying connected to our roots.
Never forget your past and your roots, because the moment you begin to forget where you came from is the beginning of the end.
I am only human and I may not be able to fulfil every wish or expectation of every person. But I can say with pride that I have always remained close to the people, worked to the best of my ability, and strived to earn their trust through my actions.
To all my dear friends who have been part of this incredible journey, thank you for your unwavering support, your faith, and the countless memories we have created together. You have made this journey truly memorable.
Met with a few committee members of Sagolband Mabudhou Mantri Leikai Maning Leirak and had a fruitful discussion on various issues concerning the locality, Sagolband at large and various issues prevailing in Manipur.
We have pledged to work together in unity and solidarity for the betterment and well-being of all, including the challenges to be faced next year. As proposed by the residents, we will also take up the construction of a new community hall in the next financial year, providing a dedicated space for gatherings and collective activities.
Together, let us continue working towards a brighter, more inclusive, and progressive future for everyone.

Wonderful interacting with the members of Keisamthong Kabui Khul, including the respected elders of Thoubei, on the completion of the upgradation and renovation of the community hall. The works include newly installed roofing materials and the completion of the stage. Concrete laying along the pathway to the cemetery has also been undertaken, along with ground development to pave the way for a new park and open gym in the near future.
It was truly heartwarming to receive the blessings of the elders, whose wisdom and encouragement inspire us in all our future endeavours.

Rigid pavement works will commence soon, with the construction of drains and the laying of paver blocks to further improve local infrastructure and connectivity.
