Imphal, May 03:
Demanding establishment of truth and commensurate punishment to guilty doctors responsible for the death of Sh Premila together with a new born baby in the Gynae ward of RIMS on April 21, a large crowd of women picketed the office of the Director RIMS today.
The crowd including members of the JAC constituted in connection with the controversial death stormed into the office of RIMS Director at about 2 pm today.
However, the enraged women were blocked in front of the Director's office by RIMS security personnel and CRPF personnel.

Shortly a team of Manipur Police arrived at the scene.
Even as the police personnel tried to pacify and disperse the crowd, the crowd refused to move and staged a protest sitting in front of the Director's office.
As RIMS Director Dr L Fimate was not present at the time when the incensed women tried to storm his office, Deputy Director Dr Ch Chandrabir came out and appealed to wait till May 5 on which the enquiry report will be submitted.
Following the appeal, the agitating crowd moved away.
From there, the crowd of women who came in six buses headed towards the official residence of the Chief Minister.
They were again blocked by police personnel near Post Office.
Following attempts of the incensed women to breach the security barricade, water canon was pressed into service and the crowd was dispersed till Keishampat Junction.
