Imphal, January 08 2013:
The 9th Manipur Imagi Yaipha Paojel event was celebrated today at Moreh town parking under the aegis of the All Community Development Organisation Moreh (ACODOM), All Manipur Ethnical Socio Cultural Organisation (AMESCO), Nupi Khunai Chaokhat Lamjing Lup Moreh and the Minority Women Development Society Moreh.
The event was inaugurated by offering prayer sessions of different religious faiths practised at Moreh.
Addressing the gathering as chief guest, Social Welfare Minister AK Mirabai appealed to protect womenfolk as sisters, mothers and daughters unlike the previous year where violence against women was shockingly high.
She also exhorted the gathering to shed aside all differences of community and religion but strengthen the bond of fraternity shared by indigenous communities for a progressive and harmonious future.
