Manipur Legislative Assembly Speaker Th Satyabrata has reportedly assured that a meeting of the Committee on Privilege and Ethics will be convened within a week.
According to Imagi Meira convenor Th Sujata, subsequent to a written assurance given by the Speaker's private secretary, a meeting was held at the Speaker's chamber on Wednesday wherein three members of Imagi Meira including Sujata participated.
Speaking to reporters after the meeting, Sujata informed that Imagi Meira reiterated its earlier demands to initiate action against the 10 Kuki MLAs who are scheming to disintegrate Manipur by demanding separate administration, hold meeting of the Committee on Privilege and Ethics, convene an emergency session of the Assembly and take decisions in the interest of public.
The Speaker assured the Imagi Meira representatives that a meeting of the Assembly Committee will be held within a week.
However, since an emergency sitting of the assembly has to be convened after it is discussed in the cabinet meeting and resolutions passed, the Speaker assured of taking up the matter with the chief minister, Sujata said while also appealing to the MLAs concerned to take part in the Committee on Privilege and Ethics meeting.
Meanwhile, volunteers of Imagi Meira started meeting with the MLAs who are to take part in the meeting.
