Imphal, July 16 2024:
Decrying the July 14 bomb attack in a residential area, Tera Loukrakpam Leikai Meira Paibi staged a sit-in protest at Neinasang Club Community Hall today.
Notably, the protest was organised in response to the bomb attack at the residence of Narengbam Samarjit, former chairman of SALAI at Sagolband Tera Loukrakpam Leikai on Sunday night.
Speaking by the sideline of the protest, Sanasam Purnima Leima, a meira paibi leader, said that locals of the area heard a deafening sound around 10:35 pm on July 14 .
It was soon learned that a bomb had exploded at the gate of Narengbam Sarmarjit while another bomb was discovered at the neighbour's gate.
She emphasized on the dense population of the area and added that both senior citizens and young children might be psychologically impacted by such fearsome incidents.
Thus, she appealed against a repetition of such violent acts which can harm the common citizens.
Questioning who would have been held accountable if there were casualties in the bomb attack, she also urged concerned parties to initiate dialogue and sort out their differences instead of resorting to such attacks.
The meira paibis have further demanded a clarification from the culprits responsible for the attack.
