Imphal, July 21 2015 :
Strongly condemning the recent spate of violence targeted at Indian journalists on duty, All India Federation of Master Printers (AIFMP), which represents the print industry on an all India basis, said the journalists, whose job is to disseminate the truth about society, must be protected by the Govt., its allied laws and other machinery.
Stressing on the fact that journalism is a part and parcel of the Indian print industry, AIFMP along with its 69 print associations all over India has demanded the Central and State Governments to offer a conducive environment for journalists to carry out their jobs without any threat to their lives and well being, overtly and covertly.
While urging strict laws against such violence, AIFMP has demanded speedy justice to find and punish the perpetrators of such violence.
