Imphal, August 12 2016 :
For the second time Irom Chanu Sharmila who recently ended her 16-year-old fast declined an offer from the Manipur unit of Aam Aadami Party (AAP) to join the party and contest as its candidate in the upcoming State Assembly polls.
The party had earlier requested Sharmila to contest the 2014 Lok Sabha polls on AAP ticket, but the offer was declined.
Her 16-year-old hunger strike against AFSPA was launched in 2000 after 'Malom Massacre' in which security forces gunned down 10 civilians.
