Imphal, June 05 2015 :
A large group of womenfolk belonging to Thangmeiband A/C today staged a sit-in demanding mid-term poll to the three vacant seats of the Manipur Legislative Assembly before the monsoon session of the Assembly.
The sit-in was staged by womenfolk belonging to five different localities of Thangmeiband which are located under IMC Ward No 2 .
One Loitongbam Sundari said that the way the Speaker's Tribunal picked only the case pertaining to MLAs Kh Joykishan, Th Bishwajit and O Lukhoi while sleeping over all other similar disqualification petitions appeared to be politically motivated.
She demanded that mid-term polls to the three Assembly segments should be held as early as possible so that the three Assembly segments do not remain unrepresented when the monsoon session of the State Assembly commences.
