Imphal, April 11 2023:
Miss Trans Queen India fourth runner-up and winner of two subtitles, Thoi Laimujam was warmly felicitated by members of Manipur Pradesh Mahila Congress Committee (MPMCC) led by its president Mutum Sharma at Bir Tikendrajit International Airport on Tuesday, upon the former's return to Manipur after participating in the pageant.
Mention may be made here that three contestants from Manipur had participated in the competition organised at Pride Plaza Aerocity, New Delhi under the supervision of Miss Trans Queen India founder Reena Rai on April 7 .
Thoi Laimujam was declared the fourth runner up and also won two subtitles, namely Best State Costume and Miss Photogenic.
Speaking on the occasion, Thoi appreciated MPMCC for the grand welcome, while remarking that more achievements would have been possible if there was support and cooperation of the people.
Informing that 25 marks were deducted due to lack of support of the people with regard to gender sensitisation, Thoi said that it was regretful to see this reason becoming an obstacle from winning the top place.
Thus, Thoi appealed to the people to encourage and support the transgender community.
Thoi will be participating in the Miss Trans Queen International, set to be held in November this year.
