Thoubal, April 15 2020:
Stating that tagging "We Support P Brojen" and other worded stickers in the relief materials distributed to the public of Wangjing Tentha Assembly Constituency is very unfortunate, N Kapilal, a social worker from Tentha appealed the Education Minister Dr Th Radheshyam to look into the matter.
It may be mentioned that Dr Th Radheshyam has been appointed as the Minister-in-charge to supervise various activities for combating coronavirus outbreak and ensuring supplies of essential commodities in Kakching and Thoubal districts.
Though providing relief materials to the public is laudable, politicising the crisis is not appreciable, the social worker added.
Asserting that public is now scared of using the distributed items as the original tags are removed and replaced it with a sticker that glorifies the local MLA, he further appealed the Minister in charge to intervene so that such unethical practice could be stopped at the earliest.
