Addressing the gathering, the Governor underscored the government’s continued commitment to public welfare through improved mobility and access to essential services.

Officials said the initiatives are expected to decongest traffic, improve service delivery, and ensure transparent, technology-enabled transport operations at the district level. The launches form part of the state government’s broader efforts to modernise transport services and extend their reach to remote areas.
Citizens were urged to support the initiatives by adhering to guidelines, safeguarding public assets, and making optimum use of the facilities to realise their full benefits for Manipur’s development.
