Dimapur, June 5 (MExN): The Joint Council Forum (JCF), Dimapur, has emphatically clarified today that the name 'City Tower' exclusively refers to a building currently housing HDFC & Bandhan Bank, and it is not the name of an area or colony, as often mistaken.
Despite previous clarifications made by senior citizens and some councils, the incorrect usage of the name 'City Tower' persists in official correspondence by the general public and even the Dimapur Municipal Council (DMC), it stated.
The JCF further noted that the iron structure at the centre of the three colonies' junction was originally named the ‘Clock Tower’ by previous administrators and local leaders, not ‘City Tower’, and advocated for its proper usage to avoid any confusion among the public.
In all official communication, the JCF also called for the use of the official name 'Clock Tower' or the names of the respective colony or road, rather than 'City Tower.’
By adhering to the correct names, residents and stakeholders can prevent any future misunderstandings or discrepancies, it added.
Meanwhile, the JCF called upon the DMC to allocate funds to repair and reinstall the clocks on the tower, which it highlighted, is currently in ‘disrepair.’
