Imphal, August 25 2011:
Reacting to the news report which appeared on the August 25 issue under the heading 'Ruckus at Cong Bhavan', a delegate of District Congress Committee, Ukhrul, AS Pamhon has refuted the charge that AS Arthur and his men attacked the general secretary (Media-in-charge) of the State Congress, Vidyapati Senjam inside his office at Congress Bhavan in the evening of August 24 .
In a statement issued to the press, the DCC delegate alleged that it was Vidyapati Senjam who raised his hands against AS Arthur and added 'I was punched on the neck while shielding Shri AS Arthur' .
Accusing Vidyapati Senjam of going against all norms of decency, Pamhon said that he did not go public with the incident as the matter had already been placed before the MPCC (I) president.
It was in line with the tradition of the party that an inner settlement was waited, said Pamhon.
Vidyapati's allegation is false and he broke party's convention, said the DCC delegate further.
