Thangmeiband constituency MLA as well as MPCC spokesperson, Kh Joykisan, visited Puyam Rameshore, senior reporter of Huiyen Lanpao, who has been down with an illness, at his Khongman Achom Leikai residence today, and also provided financial assistance to the journalist .
Puyam Rameshore had been staying at Shija Hospital for an illness and he was discharged and brought back home today after his conditions improved .
Speaking to media persons, Joykisan said that journalists play an important role in developing a society and spreading awareness and information to the people .
Explaining about the contributions of media, he said that it is with the help of media that the country as well as the State have changed drastically compared to early times and people from far off places can hear and even see events which occur at other end of the country.
On the other hand, Joykisan said that the failure of the national media to highlight the death of Chanam Pravish as well as the missing case of Taorem Bisu, is akin to neglecting the North East people .
He also expressed desire for the national media to view North East people as citizens of India.
