Imphal, October 24 2012:
Joint Committee on Inner Line Permit System (JCILPS) has decided to observe a one-day mass sit-in protest to push the Union Ministry of Home Affairs to mull over the resolution of Manipur Legislative Assembly urging for introduction of ILP system in Manipur.
JCILPS will stage a mass protest dharna on October 31 at Keishampat Lairembi Community Hall in Imphal to remind and urge the MHA to approve the resolution on implementation of ILP passed by the state House on July 31, a statement of the committee informed Wednesday.
The statement further appealed the public as well as all the state ministers and MLAs to join the demonstration.
It said sitting idle thinking that the resolution has passed will only make the demand a farce.
"We are expecting mass participation including ministers and MLAs from both the ruling and Opposition at the proposed protest, JCILPS convenor Sapamcha Jadumani told Newmai News Network this evening.
