Imphal, July 12 2015 :
Several Muslim organizations burned effigy of Chief Minister O Ibobi and buried body models of Deputy Chief Minister Gaikhangam and three Muslim legislators, Abdul Nasir, Fajur Rahim and Amin Shah on Sunday over the ILPS issue.
Volunteers of Pangal Manipuri Muslim Political Forum, Manipur (PPF), Imphal East Branch and Keirao Kendra Minority Muslim Development Organisation torched the effigy of the Chief Minister at Keirao Thongkhong bazaar in Imphal East and later buried the body models of Gaikhangam and the three Muslim MLAs.

They also staged a sit-in protest at the Urup Thongkhong.
PPF spokesperson MI Khan appealed to the Government to convene a special Assembly sitting and said all Muslim civil societies under the aegis of PPF will start full participation in the ILP protest after Ramadan, the holy month of fasting.
He said the Government cannot dodge if all communities come forward together and raise a single voice to demand implementation of ILPS in the State.
Threats and intimidation by the Government against the people cannot be the solution to the accelerated ILP movement which is underway since five years, MI Khan said.
He demanded that as the Government as well as the MLAs are not willing to act according to the pulse of the people by showing lackadaisical attitude towards safeguarding the indigenous people, they should resign.
