Imphal, April 21 2009:
Extending support to the cause of JAC Against the Brutal Killing of Kasom Khullen SDO Dr Th Kishan and his two subordinate staff, Thangmeiband United Club (TUC) and Thangmeiband Meira Paibi Apunba Lup have endorsed the decision of boycotting the Lok Sabha election to the Inner seat in Thangmeiband Assembly Constituency tomorrow.
In a joint statement, the two bodies observed that the decision has been taken up after a serious deliberation in the light of abject failure of the State Government to do justice inspite of knowing the identity of the killers, constituting probe committee and roping in the service of the CBI.
Questioning the rationale behind participation in the election process of electing a representative by the people when their Constitutional rights are being violated by such elected representatives, the joint statement also called upon the people to stay away from exercising their franchise and teach a befitting lesson to all those who have failed in their duties.
