Imphal, December 15 2022:
A team of Singjamei police station on Thursday foiled attempt by women folks of Kwakeithel Bazar from staging a sit-in protest to demand abrogation of the Suspension of Operation (SoO) agreement between Kuki insurgent groups and the government.
The women were trying to organise sit-in protest as part of the on-going movement of the People Alliance for Peace and Progress Manipur, demanding revocation of the pact signed between Kuki UG groups and the government.
The police have also seized the banners brought for use in the protest.
On the other hand, the women folk have expressed strong resentment against the police action.
