It was also resolved that the JAC and Thangmeiband Meira Lups will collaborate with clubs and Meira Paibis of various localities in organising sit in protests and to convene a public meeting in the future if there are any important developments regarding the case.

During the meeting today, numerous CSO leaders and representatives spoke about the current issue surrounding Babysana's case.

Speaking at the meeting, KSA secretary K Sanjoy said that it is important to get to the root of the problem and ensure that the culprits get the punishment they deserve so that such incidents do not happen in the future.

It is very disappointing that a parent's association was formed at such a time demanding their children and wards be exempted from the issue as this issue concerns the students, he added.

ACOAM Lup secretary Telheiba Mangang strongly condemned the inability of the State Government to solve the case at the earliest and alleged that the authorities, instead of working hard to solve the case, are targeting the people who are demanding justice.

SUK president Dhanachandra Ningthouja stressed on the importance of the people to unite and demand justice for Babysana so that such unfortunate incidents are prevented in the future.

He then questioned the parents association concerned if they are not concerned that what happened to Babysana for the same could have also happened to their children or wards instead.

Leaders of AMSU, MSF, All Manipur Tami Chingmi Lup, IKAL and various other CSOs were present as well.
