Imphal, April 21 2013:
While hailing the courage and perseverance of the womenfolk, titular king Leishemba Sanajaoba has condemned atrocities committed against women and children.
Speaking as the chief guest at the 44th foundation day of Manipuri chanura Leishem Marup (Macha Leima) at Lamyanba Shanglen, Palace Compound today, Sanajaoba conceded that he feels ashamed of being a male because of frequent reports about the abominable behaviour of men against women.
The fact that women play the most important role of running a home in addition to taking active part in crucial social issues merit respect and not abuse, he expressed.
Sanajaoba also applauded Macha Leima for the organisation's contribution towards upliftment of education in the State.
Macha Leima president Kshetrimayum Ronibala, Amkil vice president Lourembam Nganbi, former editor of Macha Leima journal Nahakpam Aruna and Prof Chinglen Meisnam of Manipur university also addressed the gathering.
