Imphal, October 30 2015 :
Lamshang Block Congress Committee (LBCC) has threatened to sue BJP Manipur Pradesh if the latter fails to tender an apology regarding inclusion of names of Congress leaders in the membership list of BJP Manipur Pradesh within five days.
Speaking at a press conference held at Manipur Press Club, LBCC spokesperson Bashanta Chongtham said that in an embarrassing goof-up, names of LBCC president Herojit Ngangomba, Lamshang Nagar Panchayat vice-president Thingujam Ibosana, Councillors Ingudam Ibosana, Yumnam Shiela, Nepram Angou, other senior Congress leaders and their families have been found included in the membership list of BJP Manipur Pradesh.
He said that such a distasteful instance not only insults Congress but also indicates that BJP is a party having no proper ethics and competent leader.
Bashanta further said that these Congress leaders were enrolled as the members of BJP without taking their consent by Phijam Pakchao, BJP Manipur State executive member.
The membership forms were found submitted online and the forms were countersigned by BJP State president Th Chaoba, Bashanta said.
He cautioned that Congress would sue BJP Manipur Pradesh if the latter fails to tender an apology through the media within five days.
