The Centre decision to allow Muivah to visit in the state was amidst the woes facing by the people due to the prolong imposition of economic blockade on the national highways by ANSAM in protest against the conduct of elections to ADC under the existing Act that govern the ADCs in hill districts.
Owing to prolong imposition of the economic blockade, the state is facing scarcity of petroleum products which also resulted in the closure of the educational institutions as school service vehicles could not get fuel.
The result that might be coming up if the economic blockade be continued is need to be considered and considering this, responsible groups should immediately withdraw the blockade, he demanded.
Advisor, N Tomba who also took part in the briefing condemned the government of Nagaland for indirectly supporting the NCSN (IM) is harassing the people of Manipur.
Manipur government need face all challenges ahead of the state.
