Imphal, July 03:
Representatives of the Manipuri Students Federation (MSF) today consigned to flames a framed photograph of Prime Minister Atal Behari Vajpayee and flags and documents belonging to the BJP near the Hotel Excellency this evening.
Earlier, the MSF volunteers went to the residences of State BJP president Meinam Bhorot and other important party functionaries and �seized� party flags, festoons and documents.
The party functionaries in whose home the �raid� was conducted include vice president Sh Shantikumar, general secretary N Ram, vice president Th Yumjao and secretaries N Ibohal and T Meena.
Later, a spokesman of the MSF told reporters that today's move is the first of a series to abolish the BJP from the State.
He has appealed to all branch and district units of the party to display sign boards declaring that they had ceased to function as offices of the BJP and urged all party workers to quit immediately.
The spokesman further said that the move will be taken up against other regional and national parties and student organizations close to political parties.
He further said that MSF will pursue different agitations to demand the immediate release of the 12 AMSU members arrested by the police.
