Imphal, July 03 2015 :
Kangleipak Students' Association (KSA) has strongly condemned CM O Ibobi's statement on Manipur's State Flower.
Reports said that he had said that Siroi Lily could also be found in Nagaland and the govt.will further investigate whether the species are of same origin or not.
It establishes the irresponsible attitude of a leader of the state who really fails to have a thorough knowledge of the State Flower, it added.
KSA strongly voiced that even if same species of Siroi Lily had been discovered, the name of Siroi should not be used.
KSA further praised MLA Karam Shyam for raising the question on Siroi Lily in Manipur Legislative Assembly and urged the state govt.to bring a concrete solution with neighbouring state on the issue.
