Imphal, January 23 2013:
Keeping in mind the existing culture of bandhs and blockades, people need to nurture a new culture of peace, harmony and mutual respect between different communities by employing sports as a medium, stated MLA DK Korungthang.
The MLA was speaking at the opening ceremony of the CESAM Sports Meet organised by Chandel East Sporting Association at Hermon village under Moreh sub-division yesterday.
The sports meet being held under the theme "Brotherhood Through Sports" is being participated by around 30 different teams and it would conclude on January 25 .
The culture of calling bandh/blockade every now and then for one reason or another has not only affected law and order but also derailed economic well being of the State.
