Imphal, March 23 2023:
International Manipuri Mothers' Association (IMMA) celebrated its 20th Foundation Day at Sangaipat community hall, Sangaipat Thangjam Leikai, Bamon Leikai on Thursday.
The celebration was attended by IMMA advisor Aribam Santi-kumar Sharma as chief guest and president Rk (o) Khuman Leima as president, while AMTA former president Okram Manglem, IMMA executive member Meisnam Bhanupati and vice president Loitongbam (o)-Leibak-leima were present as guests of honour.
Speaking on the occasion, Shantikumar lauded the efforts made by IMMA for uplifting the status of women in the state as well as at the national and international levels under the leadership of its founder RK Khuman Leima, who is in her 90s now.
In her speech, Loitongbam Leibaklei recounted the role played by the womenfolk in driving out Assam Rifles from the Kangla Fort.
The women of Manipur have never shied away from their immense responsibilities.
However, the present generation seems to have become negligent in taking care of their children due to overdependence on technology.
As such, IMMA will continue to work hard for protecting the society from degradation, she added.
