Imphal, July 09 2018:
In another senseless and cowardly act of violence, a Meitei underground group detonated an IED on a party of 31 Assam Rifles near the Indo-Myanmar Border in Kamjong district today.
This dastardly act resulted in the gruesome death of Sep N Subhash Chandra, a bright and brave soldier hailing from Village Khanabok of Thoubal District.
This criminally meaningless act has once again demonstrated the utter lack of concern of these so-called revolutionaries towards the well being of the state they claim to be fighting for.
While the entire government and administration led by the Honble CM Shri Biren Singh is endeavouring to usher in peace and progress in the state, these criminals are hell bent on keeping Manipur burning, notwithstanding that it is burning the future of today's youth and children as well.
Rifleman Ningthoujam Subhash Chandra Singh had excelled in all aspects of his profession and had a bright future in the Assam rifles.
His sharp skills and fearless demeanor had got him picked up as the leading scout of his party.
The cowardly UGs however never gave him a chance to display his valour when they coldly detonated an IED under him.
This brave son of Manipur is survived by his wife and two kids.
The insurgents without sparing a thought for the young children, aged just 8 and 12 years, took away the sole breadwinner of the family.
The Governor, who is out of station has stated that she sent her deepest condolence to the bereaved family and has expressed her deep concern at the incident as it will negate the peaceful conducive environment that she has been trying so hard to create.
The Assam Rifles and Army has expressed it's deepest condolences to the bereaved family.
