Imphal, August 06:
A sit-in-protest was staged on August 5 at Manipur Press Club by media persons under the aegis of All Manipur Working Journalists' Union (AMWJU) from 11 am to 5 pm in protest against the ban imposed on Poknapham daily by KCP(MC) L Khuman group.
A meeting was also convened after the sit-in-protest with AMWJU president S Hemanta in the chair.
The meeting took serious note on the stoic silence of the KCP(MC) even though the union urged the outfit to lift the ban from the daily.
The union would boycott the outfit and would not publish any press release of the UG group until the ban is lifted, the meeting decided.
It also resolved to publish papers from August 7 including Poknapham.
The meeting also decided to jointly face any consequence under AMWJU.
