Imphal, March 24 2010: Amid outcries from opposition political parties to civil society organisation against conceding substantial land size to Myanmar, the State unit BJP is all set to visit the border town for a spot inquiry.

A top BJP functionary mulled that a BJP delegation might leave for Moreh either on March 26 or 27 .

It had been reported that a specific border area spot where a temple (Sri Angala Parameshwori Sri Muneeswarar shrine) of the Tamil community settled in Moreh, is located will be on the Myanmar side when the 10-kilometre long fencing in between Moreh and Myanmar's Tamu commences.

the Tamil population has steadfastly raising objection against the government's move.

"We have discussed the issue that poses a serious threat to Manipur's territorial integrity and we will not allow losing even an inch of our land by the proposed fence between our country and Myanmar," vice president of the state BJP M Tikendra Singh said.

To ascertain the ground realities and factual position of the issue, a team of state unit headed by its president S Shantikumar Sharma will move to the border town either on Friday or Saturday, added Tikendra, also be a member of the proposed team.

"At Moreh we will meet the agitating Tamil people and other communities as well as officials and after gathering all related documents from the spot, we will do the needful to ensure not a piece of our land goes to Myanmar by the proposed border fencing," Tikendra said.

"To save our land, we will approach our national party leaders as well as external affairs ministry," added the BJP leader.

Meanwhile a BRTF team has reportedly reached Moreh town to begin the fencing work.

"They came with heavy machines including earth pullers and we have learnt that they will begin fencing work within the current month," said a source.

Official sources, however, said the BRTF men had been stationed in Chandel district in connection with construction of roads at the border areas.

New Delhi has taken its decision to put up the fence in order check cross-border movements of armed elements and rampant smuggling of drugs, weapons and rare animal parts.
