The JAC had earlier appealed the authority of the JNIMS to open the Pong Lambi – the road that passed in the middle of the Institute and connect the Kongpal Kongkham Leikai area. It may be recalled that the JAC had threaten to close down the OPD and Casualty of the hospital if the authority failed to open the road by October 25 during a press meet held on October 14 at Manipur Press Club.
At around 9 am today morning, large number of volunteers of the JAC comprising of both women and men today sit in front of the OPD and stop all sort of treatment in the hospital. Later, at around 10 am the volunteer came towards the casualty and force shut the gate preventing any kind of treatment in the hospital.
At around 11 am, the members of the JAC thronged to the room of the Director JNIMS, however, security guard at the gate of the main block fired a round of gunshot in the area while trying to stop them. Later, 2 representatives of the JAC were called in to talk over the matter with the Director. The Director reportedly appealed the JAC to withdraw the agitation after assuring to bring up the matter with the Chief Minister of Manipur. However, the representatives of the JAC refused to withdraw the agitation saying that they will continue the agitation until the JNIMS authority open the Pong Lambi.   
The Pong Lambi has been close down after the JN Hospital was upgraded to JNIMS . The closure of the road was strongly protested by the locals residing at the eastern side of JNIMS on the ground that the closure of the road had created lot of hardship to the people of the area.
