An expert committee has been proposed and constituted, consisting of selective legal luminaries, archivists, historians and academicians of the state of Manipur, to analyze the issue of increasing influx in the state and to draw a legal framework for the reintroduction of inner line permit (ILP) to offset the growing trend of demographic imbalance, said Federation of Regional Indigenous Societies (FREINDS).
Speaking to the press today, president of FREINDS Jadumani Sapamcha said that with the institution of the expert committee, the matter is now in the government’s court as to how sincerely it wants to pursue. “The fate of the people of Manipur is now in the hands of the state government,” he said.
