Gujarat vs Manipur: A tale of two states
The Asian Age | Aug 05, 2010 | New Delhi
Manipur is crying for help. There is a sense of utter hopelessness and fatigue in the state. Administration is almost non-existent. We find instead the heady and dangerous mix of insurgency groups running a parallel administration, flourishing extortion rackets, corruption, extra-judicial killings, threats to life and assets, and frequent violation of human rights.
Salam Ajit Singh, Okram Ranjit Singh, Md. Taslimuddin, Laishram Dipson and Ningthoujam Anand were killed in encounters. They were very ordinary citizens of the country — auto drivers, daily-wage workers and small businessmen. The families of four of the above have approached the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC). NHRC has is making enquiries.
In Manipur, one can find more of what the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), the Congress, the human rights activists, and the media put together can find in Gujarat. Let me hasten to add here that the investigations should go on in Gujarat. But the Congress — in Manipur and at the Centre — should say why the CBI is hibernating in Manipur.
H/T to Sanjit Laishram for sharing this article who also wants to share some few words:
"This is not the 1st time i have share an Article which i have come across in Leading Dailies with you.
