Imphal, March 15 2016:
The relentless protest spearheaded by Khousabung Subdivision Demand Committee (KSDDC) demanding renaming of the new subdivision of Churachandpur as 'Khousabung subdivision' with its headquarters at Khousabung continued without any let-up.
Protesters drawn from different villages staged a sit-in cum candlelight vigil tonight at Khousabung market shed new subdivision of Churachandpur as Khousabung subdivision with its headquarters at Khousabung as per the wishes of the people covered by the new SDO/BDO circle.
The protesters have been amongst others demanding the State Govt to roll back its 'biased' decision of Feb 10 and delivered justice to the people.
They said that Khousabung is the preferred choice of over 100 village chiefs out of the 125 villages covered by the new subdivision.
Meanwhile, KSDDC has warned of launching intense forms of agitation anytime soon if the Govt continues to maintain its indifferent attitude to the genuine public demand on the matter.
