Imphal, July 09 2022:
Deeply concerned over increasing alcohol consumption among women as if imitating western culture, All Manipur Women Social Reformation and Development Samaj (Nupi Samaj) general secretary K Sobita Leima has stressed the need for saving mothers of Manipuri society for the sake of future generation.
Making this remark during a discussion on drugs and society jointly organised by Nupi Samaj, Women Society Sanasabi and Women Society Thamnapokpi at Thamnapokpi playground community hall, K Sobita pointed out that drug abuse and drug business are increasing like flash flood in Manipur since the past few years.
Apart from this, more women are consuming liquor like never before and this indeed is very unfortunate for the society, she said, adding that this is not a good sign for the society and Manipuri women need to understand the role played by women in the two historic Nupi Lal events.
The discussion session was also attended by Nupi Samaj advisor K Indu, CADA president H Priyo, Telou-Chana GP pradhan H Nimai and Women Society Thamnapokpi president M Khomdon as presidium members.
