Imphal: A local court has fined Rs 1,000 each to two non-local labourers who were found staying in the state without ILP (Inner Line Permit) pass.

The Imphal West district executive magistrate directed concerned authorities to penalize landlords who rent their houses or rooms to non-locals with no valid ILP passes with Rs 5,000.

The two non-local labourers were penalized by the executive magistrate before whom the police produced the two non-local labourers after formal arrest for violating the ILP.

Members of the Joint Committee on Inner Line Permit System (JCILPS) pulled up the non-locals during a drive against ILP violators at work places at Patsoi area of Imphal West district on Saturday and handed them over to the police.

While producing them in the court of the executive magistrate, the police charged them of entering the state without ILP.
