Imphal, March 29 2019:
Manipur Pradesh Congress Committee spokesperson Khumukcham Joykisan has blasted the BJP alleging that the said party has been indulging in communal politics in the State.
Speaking to media persons at Congress Bhawan, BT road today, Joykisan alleged that, in view of achieving political power, BJP has demonstrated that it has little regard for the integrity and communal harmony of the State and its people.
Benjamin Mate, who is one of the candidates of the Outer Parliamentary Constituency has released a six point representation on social media stating that all Kukis should caste their vote to BJP candidate, Joykisan alleged.
Maintaining that the points put up by Mate in social media are allegedly seditious statements, Joykisan questioned why he (Mate) has not been arrested by the State Government even though Kishorechandra is still detained under NSA for expressing some views.
He further alleged that the statements of Benjamin Mate will only break the communal harmony and integrity of Manipur.
Alleging that the State is being governed as a dictatorship under the influence of UG groups, he further alleged that when the State Government was questioned, during the budget session, on why the shopping mall in Moreh has not been inaugurated till date, it responded that the Govt received some threats which clearly shows that the Govt is running as a dictatorship of terrorist organisation.
Joykisan further alleged that the BJP has been campaigning among the Kuki community keeping aside the Meiteis and the Nagas.
He further questioned why the Govt is allowing such actions while demanding BJP to issue a clarification at the earliest.Joykisan further appealed all to deliberate on the alleged communal election campaigns which the Govt has remained mum on.
He claimed that when the dilapidated condition of RIMS road was put forward in the recent budget session, the Government responded that the construction work will be taken up on the first week of March and that the work order has also been issued.
However, the construction work has not even started yet which is a major deception, he added.
