Imphal, September 21 2009:
Apunba Lup is organising a mass torch rally on September 22 to 24 at 7pm with the support of 22 organisations as part of the intensified agitation against the government of Manipur against the July 23 Khwairamband incident.
Lamenting that the Prime Minister, Union Home Minister and the Governor have all turned a deaf ear to the demands of the people, a statement issued by the Working Committee of the Apunba Lup asserted that there is no other option than to pull the CM down from his bungalow.
The Apunba Lup has also urged all concerned to immediately stop development works taken under CADA, PDA, Minor Irrigation, Flood Control, and PWD.
Further, it also informed the NHPC (National Hydro Electric Power Corporation) authority to stop exporting power to outside the state.
The Apunba Lup also urged sportspersons of the state to join the agitations.
Urging all Congress MLAs and workers to stop support to O Ibobi, the statement also warned that all Congress offices and flags in the state will be shut down immediately.
