Imphal, March 09 2013 :
The 13 Bn BSF authority has denied the allegations levelled by Rishophung VA against the personnel posted at Moirangpurel of setting the reserve forest land afire on March 5 around 12 noon.
A statement issued by Naveen Kumar, DC/Adjutant of 13 BSF clarified that the allegations are totally false and fabricated while saying that it was the handiwork of some vested interest active in the area trying to tarnish the excellent and immaculate image enjoyed by BSF among the people.
Pointing out that no such complain was lodged against the BSF either in the Sawombung or Thoubal Forest divisions, the BSF condemned the mischief which is primarily aimed at creating misunderstanding among the residents of the villages.
Further pointing out that the villagers of Rishophung openly came in favour of the BSF and completely dismissed any such action by them, the BSF said the matter should be thoroughly investigated and the culprits should be taken to task for propagating such rumours against BSF.
