Imphal, October 03 2026: Leimarol Khorjeikol (LEIKOL) observed its 26th foundation day at MDU Hall, Yaiskul Police Lane, today.

During the programme, the Maharajkumari Binodini Ningshing Sahitya Mana 2026 and other awards were presented to 11 writers and artists.

Addressing the function, Khundrakpam AC MLA Th Lokeshwar urged the Centre and State Governments to ensure the Home Department function efficiently to facilitate the resettlement of internally displaced persons (IDPs) and restore normalcy in the State.

He further urged the Government to stop transferring and posting IPS and MPS officers based on community considerations.

He advised that officers belonging to different communities be allowed to work together, adding that the resettlement of IDPs would remain impossible if even Government officials are divided along community lines.
