Imphal, June 15 2013 : Demanding clarification over not conducting the MBBS/BDS Entrance Exam, agitated volunteers of Manipuri Students' Federation (MSF) have shut down the office of Medical Directorate at Lamphel today.

In connection with the agitation launched by MSF, Police have arrested four volunteers of MSF including its President Longjam Umakanta.

The other three volunteers are Aheibam Boynao, VP; Soibam Devlong, Finance Secretary and Keisham Romeo, President of Imphal East District unit.

The agitated volunteers of MSF arrived at the office of Medical Directorate at around 11 am today and forced all the staffs inside to come out and then locked the main entrance gate of the office.

Placards inscribed with wordings like "We want Justice" were also put up on the entrance gate.

Speaking to reporters on the sidelines of the agitation, RN Koireng, General Secretary of MSF, said that the after making all necessary arrangements for conducting the MBBS/BDS Entrance exam even to the extent of providing examination centres, the Medical Directorate had all of a sudden issued an order cancelling the exam without providing specific reasons.

He further stated that the State Govt should furnish specific reasons behind not conducting the exam.

Until and unless, proper justification is made in this regard, the agitation of MSF would continue, the student activist made it clear.

Meanwhile, in a statement released by Syed Nawas Khan, Assistant Publicity Secretary, MSF, the student body has demanded unconditional release of the arrested four volunteers of MSF including its President at the earliest.

The student body has also warned of taking recourse to more intense agitation with the support from the various NGOs, CSOs, students organizations, clubs, Meira paibis and guardians of MBBS/BDS aspiring candidates, if the arrested volunteers were not released.
