Imphal, April 26 2013 :
Contending that the move to scrap Additional English from the curricula of Class IX and X by the Board of Secondary Education Manipur is a direct insult to the tribal s and violation of their rights, the Federation of All Tribal Youth Clubs, Manipur (FATYCM) has urged the Chief Minister to cancel the BSEM order.
FATYCM has submitted a memorandum to the CM to this effect.
Maintaining that the BSEM order has reduced tribal students to second class citizens of the State, the FATYCM memo also urged for the restoration of Additional English subject as before.
The tribal body also warned of launching democratic forms of agitation if the demand is not heard at the earliest possible time.
