Imphal, August 13 2011:
Veteran MPP MLA O Joy has categorically that those people who love Manipur and her people sincerely are patriots while those elements scheming to disintegrate Manipur are traitors and MPP would view them as enemies.
O Joy was speaking at the Patriots' Day function held at MPP office here today.
Those born in Manipur but more inclined towards Nagaland are not patriots, he stated.
He also called upon the people to do a soul searching for comprehensive understanding of the significance of the Patriots' Day and Khongjom Day.
Speaking at the occasion, MPP advisor and former Chief minister Dr L Chandramani said the memorial function of the martyrs who sacrificed their lives for the cause of the nation started during the time of MPP Chief Minister Md Alimudin.
Only MPP and no other party can save Manipur from the apparent divisions between the hills and valley, claimed Dr Chandramani.
The function was also attended by former Union Minister Th Chaoba, party president Dr Nimaichand Luwang and many other party leaders.
