Imphal, August 02 2013 :
The Tribal People Organization Manipur (TPOM) has extended its warmest greetings and good wishes to Dr Ashwani Kumar and PC Lawmkunga on being appointed the Governor of Manipur and Chief Secretary respectively of the State.
The occasion of their elevation to their respective post is momentous and historic to the Mongoloid people of Manipur and the hill tribes in particular, as it is the first time that both the Governor and the Chief Secretary of the State hail from the Himalayan range, said TPOM publicity secretary, Thomas Thopao in a statement.
The tribal organisation has also expressed its gratitude to Okram Ibobi Singh, Chief Minister of the State, without whose initiative and thoughtfulness, such occasion would not have been witnessed today.
It further stated that the noble efforts of the Governor, Chief Minister and the Chief Secretary will definitely bring better system of governance and restore just and fairness to the people of Manipur regardless of ethnic diversity.
