Dimapur: The indefinite shutter down in Dimapur, orchestrated by the Dimapur Chamber of Commerce and Industry (DCCI), as announced earlier this week began today. The streets of Dimapur, typically bustling with commercial activities on a normal weekday, now wear a deserted look as shops and business establishments across the district remained closed.
Dimapur, renowned as the commercial nucleus of Nagaland, is experiencing the brunt of the shutter down, affecting over 30,000 shops and business entities, according to figures provided by the DCCI. The closure encompasses a wide spectrum of commercial activities, grinding the district’s economic machinery to a halt.
The catalyst behind this drastic action, as elucidated in the DCCI’s press statement issued on Monday, April 22, is attributed to “unabated multiple taxation, intimidation, and summons” by various Naga Political Groups. The DCCI has staunchly declared that the shutter down will persist until the grievances voiced by the business community are effectively addressed.
