The Longleng Town Students’ Union (LTSU), in collaboration with the District Administration and the District Dobashis, carried out an extensive inspection drive on 15th September 2025, to check for expired and substandard goods being sold within Longleng Town.
The inspection team, comprising officials from the administration, Dobashis, and members of LTSU, visited several shops and business establishments across the town. The drive was initiated as part of a joint effort to safeguard public health and ensure consumer safety. During the inspection, various goods were thoroughly checked for expiry dates, proper labelling, and storage standards.
Speaking on the initiative, LTSU officials highlighted that the union remains committed to protecting the interests of the public, particularly the student community and local residents. They further stressed that selling expired goods poses a serious health risk and urged all business establishments to exercise responsibility and maintain compliance with legal standards.
The District Administration and Dobashis extended their appreciation to LTSU for taking proactive steps in addressing such concerns, reaffirming their support in continuing similar drives in the future.
The inspection team has cautioned defaulters against repeating such practices and has assured the public that strict action will be taken in accordance with the law against those found violating consumer safety norms.
The joint effort reflects the shared commitment of both civil society organizations and the administration in building a safer and healthier Longleng.
