Imphal, February 05 2022:
The BJP Singjamei Mandal has warned former Singjamei AC MLA, I Hemochandra of a legal suit if he do not clarify on a 'defamatory remark' he made against Speaker and present MLA, Y Khemchand Singh within a week.
Speaking to media persons at the BJP Singjamei Mandal office at Singjamei parking, mandal president Ksh Rajen expressed that the statement released on social media and to some media platforms by the former MLA on February 3 over a poll related ruckus at Singjamei Oinam Thingel was very unfortunate.
He said that the former MLA's claim that the unwanted incident was instigated by the Speaker, Y Khemchand, was baseless and fabricated.
The Speaker has never encouraged any of his workers or supporters to indulge in excessive and unwanted activities, he said while adding that the former MLA should bring forth the evidence of his slanderous claim or clarify within a week.
If the former MLA fails to bring out evidence or make a clarification within a week, the BJP Singjamei Mandal will file a legal suit against him (Hemochandra), he continued.
