Imphal, May 09 2023:
To pay homage to those killed in the communal vio-lence between two communities and pray for lasting peace in the state, All Manipur Muslim Organisation Co-ordinating Committee (AMMOCOC) will organise a mass prayer on Fri-day.
Addressing media persons at its Hatta Golapati office, AMMOCOC president SM Jalal informed that a committee of Manipuri Muslims christened Committee for Goodwill Mission on Peace has been formed to spread and carry the message of peaceful coexistence.
The committee formed pri-marily to bring about peace in the state in the aftermath of the communal clashes has Sajid Buyamayum as the convenor.
While stressing the need to prevent recurrence of commu-nal violence in the state, he said Manipuri Muslims believe in the idea that all the communities living in the state cannot be separated.
"If at all there have been mis-takes in the past, we should all forgive and forget and live peacefully as brothers," he added.
SM Jalal also appealed all not to create any disturbance in the endeavour of the state government to bring back the displaced persons to their re-spective homes or safe locations.
