Earlier talking to media persons, CLP leader Okram Ibobi had questioned the rationale behind the meeting of the all political party meeting convened by the Chief Minister if the delegations which are supposed to rely the stand of the political party in connection with finding any solution with the NSCN-IM could not be conveyed before October 31 .
"Till today when it is only 2 days left for signing of the peace deal , the delegates of the all political party still have not been given any appointment", Okram Ibobi said adding that there is no use submitting the stand of the all political party which is also a mandate of the people of the state if the agreement is already signed.
The memorandum submitted to the Prime Minister through the Governor strongly opposed any formation of any structures base on ethnic line like the formation of Pan Naga Cultural body or territorial council for the Naga of Manipur as it has the tendency to distort the integrity of the state.
The memorandum also expressed apprehension for the alleged deployment of additional paramilitary force in the state saying that the situation is not a sign of peaceful solution.
