Imphal, August 01 2015 :
In solidarity to the ongoing mass movement for enforcement of ILPS in Manipur or enactment of a similar mechanism, the Pangal Political Forum (PPF) Manipur has decided to launch different forms of agitation from August 5 .
Speaking to media persons at Manipur Press Club here today, PPF Manipur spokesperson MI Khan said that they would gherao residences of MLAs, Ministers and court mass arrest apart from staging sit-in-protests extensively.
In order to guard off indigenous Manipuri people from the precarious situation in which indigenous Tripuris are at present, PPF Manipur would extend full support to JCILPS.
To launch fresh agitation, due communications have been made with the PPF branches of Moirang, Jiribam, Moreh, Yairipok, Thoubal, Imphal East and Imphal West, MI Khan said.
By condoning all those police personnel involved in the killing of Sapam Robinhood, the Government has been treating the public issue quite casually.
He then called upon all the protesters to relax essential services, medical service and religious functions from any mode of protest agitation.
The Government should be held responsible for jeopardising the academic career of tens of thousands of students by closing schools and colleges indefinitely.
Meanwhile, protest demonstrations were staged at different places today too on the popular demand of enforcing ILPS or enactment of a similar mechanism.
Protesters formed a human chain at Sega Road and shouted in unison slogans like "Implement ILPS in Manipur", "We condemn killing of Robinhood", "Punish all guilty police personnel" etc.
A similar protest demonstration was also staged at Kwakeithel.
For the same cause, a sit-in-protest was staged at Kwakeithel Thounaojam Leikai.
