Times of India | TNN | Oct 29, 2011, 11.26PM IST
Twenty-five civil activists, who had come to Manipur to meet anti-AFSPA crusader Irom Sharmila Chanu in Imphal during the last leg of the 'Jan Karvan March' campaign, flagged off by activist Medha Patker from Srinagar, left on Saturday without seeing her. They also had to undergo the bitter experience of being kept in police custody during their visit.
The group comprising eight women, among the 25 activists, drawn from 12 states, started their 'Save Sharmila' campaign on October 16 and reached Imphal on Thursday.
According to their scheduled plan, they were supposed to wind up the campaign after meeting Sharmila at the security ward of the state-run Jawaharlal Nehru Institute of Medical Sciences (Jnims) where she is being force fed through nose in Imphal East on Friday.
