Withdraw Armed Forces Special Powers Act, say activists
Assam Tribune | IANS | Imphal, Feb 6 ():
A week-long campaign will be launched across the country Mar 8 to demand revocation of the Armed Forces Special Powers Act (AFSPA), an activist said here. The Save Sharmila campaign by the National Alliance for People's Movement (NAPM) will be launched on International Women's Day.
The objective of the campaign is to create awareness among people of those states where the AFSPA is not in force. Such laws have created a void between the people of these states and the people of Jammu and Kashmir, Manipur and other northeastern states, where AFSPA is in force," he added.
