Imphal, April 07 2016:
The Government of India has been accused of
violating the Merger Agreement it signed with Manipur.
Article 8, Clause III of the Merger Agreement clearly laid
down that Manipuri youth would be given employment in
different establishments of the Government of India but noth-
ing has been done in this regard though it has been 60 years
or so since the agreement was signed, said Advocate RK
Deepak.
Even though Dr Th Suresh filed a PIL at the Supreme
Court and the High Court of Manipur on the same matter, the
High Court rejected the PIL on April 4, said Advocate Deepak
who is the counsel of the petitioner.
He added that a representation would be sent to the Presi-
dent of India shortly.
