Imphal, April 15 2019:
Secular Democratic Front, formed by six political parties, has pledged support to INC candidate for Inner Manipur Constituency, Oinam Nabakishore.
Speaking to media persons, SDF co-convenor Ch Inaocha alleged that giving votes to the BJP is similar to rooting for the extinction of the indigenous people and the SDF has decided to pledge support to INC candidate O Nabakishore with the belief that only the Congress party can save Manipur.
Expressing belief that the Congress candidate will win the election by a huge margin, he said that it is high time for the people to see through the drama and stop supporting Ministers, MLAs, politicians and candidates who suddenly become hard-working only during the time of elections.
He then accused the ruling BJP of using money and muscle power to gather votes and claimed that if people are intimidated by such antics and decide to vote for the BJP, then the indigenous people will be doomed.
Appealing the people to vote for the candidate who will work sincerely for the protection of Manipur, Inaocha claimed that many CSOs have damaged their own reputation and credibility as they were shouting against CAB in the past but now they are spearheading election campaigns for a party which wanted to destroy the land.
He then expressed desire for the CSOs of the State to analyse and support the candidate who will strive for the survival of the indigenous people.
