Imphal: 24 June 2024
In a disturbing incident, an ambulance van with the registration MN 01X-5679 was spotted transporting school children, raising serious questions about the misuse of health sector resources. This incident in Imphal, the state capital, highlights a troubling misuse of vital emergency services, which is a cause for concern for the entire state.
