Imphal, March 03 2015 :
All Manipur Ethnical Socio-Cultural Organization (AMESCO) has appealed to all to cut down the festive activities of the five-day Yaoshang festival.
According to a press note issued by AMESCO's Publicity Secretary Kalachanbi, complete indulgence in Yaoshang festival for five days will not be helpful in growth and development of the State.
The youths should avoid organizing "Thabal Chongba" and other festive activities beyond the five days.
They should focus mainly on games and sports and avoid consuming alcohol, drugs and other intoxicants during the festival.
AMESCO also appealed to the media houses to cut down the number of press holidays during the Yaoshang festival.
