Imphal, March 18 2015:
Democratic Students' Alliance of Manipur (DESAM) has appealed to the KCP Poirei group to immediately withdraw its decision to shut down five Catholic schools in Imphal on Wednesday.
DESAM in a statement also appealed to all Catholic schools to resume normal classes from Thursday (March 19) .
The alliance will not judge the decision of any group to punish those individuals directly involved in any fraudulent school admission deal, the statement said.
However, DESAM cannot remain a mere spectator if thousands of young students are forced to lose their academic career due to the impasse, the statement said.
The alliance demanded that authorities of these Catholic schools disclose in public the facts regarding allegations levelled against them over the admission process.
DESAM said all Catholic schools should resume normal classes from March 19 and appealed to the students to attend their respective schools.
It also appealed to all people in school van service to resume normal duty.
