Bishnupur

A sit-in protest was carried out today at Oinam Bazar organised by the Oinam Block Congress Workers against false allegations on MP Dr Angomcha Bimol Akoijam.

The protestors urged all concerned to 'Stop character assassination', 'Withdraw false allegations', 'Stop Political Conspiracy' and 'Don't kill democracy'.

Speaking at the protest, Laitonjam Brojen, convenor of the Legal Cell Department of Manipur Pradesh Congress Committee (MPCC) alleged that 'the termination of MP Bimol Akoijam from Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) is a conspired act of BJP since the party has got a hold of the major key institutions including High Courts, Supreme Court, Election Commision of India (ECI), National Investigation Agency (NIA), Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) and alike'.

He expressed that the termination of MP Bimol Akoijam from JNU is a ploy of the BJP Government to silence his voice and tarnish his established image.

He further alleged that 'The agenda of BJP is to let him resign as a MP considering his strong stand on the Manipur crisis and his vocal nature in the Parliament'.

The protestors used placards which read 'Don't kill Democracy', 'The Truth will prevail', 'No political conspiracy', 'Stop Political Witch Hunt', 'North East voices can't be silenced', 'We Stand for Oja Bimol' and 'Bimol is our second Irabot' .

Thoubal

Members of Meitei Community Joint Coordinating Committee (MCJCC) in collaboration with 18 local clubs of Thoubal district staged a sit-in protest today at Thoubal Kiyam Siphai denouncing the 'false allegations of sexual harassment' on Lok Sabha MP Angomcha Bimol Akoijam.

The protestors strongly condemned the termination of MP Bimol Akoijam from Jawaharlal Nehru University (JNU) over the allegations of sexual harassment and the ongoing public trial to tarnish his image when nothing has been proven yet.

Speaking in connection with the protest, MCJCC finance secretary, Inaocha Khumanthem expressed resentment over the ongoing issue surrounding the allegations on MP Bimol Akoijam and termed it really unfortunate.

He reacted strongly against the allegations on MP Bimol Akoijam who has been working selflessly on the issues of Manipur by raising voices and affirming his stand for Manipur.

Putting him on public trial and rushing to frame him before the matter is decided in Court is not called for, he said.

He maintained that all should come together and stand for MP Bimol Akoijam who has been vocal about the Manipur crisis ever since the outbreak of ethnic conflict on May 3, 2023 .

The protestors used placards which read, 'We condemn the allegations on MP Bimol Akoijam', 'Do not demean an eligible MP' and 'Do not raise issues backed by vested interests' among others.
