Thoubal, September 05 2023:
Denouncing the legal notice served to Republican Party of India national general secretary Maheshwar Thounaojam by Assam Rifles, Thoubal Athokpam Khunou Meira Paibi Lup organised in sit-in protest at Athokpam Khunou in Thoubal district on Tuesday.
Speaking on the side-lines of the protest, Lup member Oinam Ranjita acknowledged that Maheshwar has been shouldering the responsibility to debunk allegations levelled against Meetei by Kukis in international and national media.
However, it is unfortunate that legal notice was issued against him by Assam Rifles which is akin to serving legal notice to the people of Manipur.
As such, the notice against Maheshwar should be withdrawn immediately, she demanded.
