Beware of the so-called, self styled Job information and guidance centres, functioning at random, in and around Imphal city areas, as a lucrative business with wide publicity and advertisement made in the local Medias, from time to time. They have no authority to conduct interviews for innumerable posts and trades of public and private sectors including central Govt. departments and orgnisations without any authentic reference and without any authorized resource/specialized persons in the respective field/department.
At the most, the job centres could sell the prescribed proformas after printing out from the Employment News or through internet for various vacant positions rates, as have been functioning smoothly in all metro cities of India.
In Manipur, Job Centre are actively interviews of multifarious trades/departments and collecting huge amounts in the name of security deposits and Registration Free etc. from the aspiring candidates /Job Sackers individually with false promise to appoint them as and when the candidates reach various destinations of the place of service viz Shillong, Chennai, Banglore, Mumbai, Pune and Dehlietc through cheating by way of befooling and victimizing the innocent victims as easy-prey in the hands of criminal job centres of Imphal. There are more than five thousand Manipuri youths who are misguided by Job Centres form time to time. Due to disappointment for not getting employment, the victimized unemployed youths have become drug-addicts and immoral in character in a disgracefully helpless circumstances. It is pitiable and very sad news. It is not a myth, but it is happening in reality.
It is one hundred thousand Million Dollar question answerable by the Home Department and the General public as well. We should awake and aware of the vulnerable roles being played by the Job Centres in Manipur. Their destructive roles are more dangerous than the HIV/AIDS/ Swine Flu diseases. They are the looters, Cheaters and blood-suckers of unemployed youths.
It is high time to recall the tragic, episode and drama of the ill fated 100 Manipuri Girls who were rescued from Bangkok form brothel house, and 18 Manipuri Girls apprehended by Nagaland police at Dimapur and handed over to Manipuri Police in 2008-2009. In the recent past, an attempt of child trafficking at orphan homes at Chennai were censored and rescued by the NGO’s. Thanks God, those children were taken there on the pretext of giving free education and schooling by some anti-social elements of Manipur who indulges in the sale/business of Human flesh. Please emagine and confirm who are responsible for such untoward and unfortunate happenings.
To ensure a healthy and civilized Manipuri Community, the police department is urged to enquire into this serious social issue and arrange to book and punish those corrupt and criminal maniac scoundrels who are involved and responsible for comminuting such inhuman crimes mindlessly. This is the voice of the people of Manipur.
Last but not the least, the recent incidents of gang-rage and brutal killings of innocent women and human tragedy. The Govt. and the public should leave no stone unturned to nab the offenders and hand then in public places as have been done in China and Pakistan so that such incidents do not recur again in future.
