Imphal, October 13 2019: President of Manipuri Students Federation (MSF), Ngariyanbam Milan has condemned the State Government for being a people friendly adminis-tration only in words but being the opposite in reality.

Speaking at the 21st foundation day of MSF at Tiddim Ground, Kwakeithel today, Milan expressed disappointment against the Government for treating/viewing any democratic movement launched by the people or the CSOs/student bodies, in the wrong light and claimed that even though the present Government claims itself to be people's Government, in reality it is the complete opposite.

He said that MSF is planning to organise an academic convention to improve the education sector of the State and appealed to the general public, CSOs, NGOs etc to offer full support.

On the other hand, All Manipur United Clubs' Organization (AMUCO) presi- dent Ph Nando Luwang said that the Naga political issue is not a new one and there has been many instances or points of time where tensions ran high and the people of Manipur were filled with apprehension.

As such, AMUCO has been working tirelessly to protect the integrity and unity of the State all these years with the people and various CSOs, he said.

He continued that recently, reports and claims of territorial council or Pan Naga body concerning the Naga peace talk are cropping up but most of these seems to be mere assumption, which is dangerous as the issue might be misguided on a different dimension.

AMUCO is minutely monitoring the situation so as to avoid such pitfalls, he added.

He continued that following the recent meeting between NSCN (IM) leaders and the Central Government representatives, many theories and claims have sprung up from various angles.

However, it is imperative that no assumptions are made and the truth is not sidelined by emotions.

AMUCO strives to properly study and analyse every issue, he said.

Nando then said that MSF is one of the student organisations which took the least amount of time to be recognised and lauded by the people since it was formed on October 13, 1998.President of Poirei Leimarol Meira Paibi Apunba Manipur, Longjam Memchoubi lauded MSF for actively participating in many of the State's issues and explained that former president of MSF, (L) Chittaranjan immolated himself in 2004 in protest against AFSPA and made the ultimate sacrifice for the welfare of the people.
