Imphal, June 16 2023:
Iramdam Kanba Lup, Heikrujam Mamang Leikai and Konthoujam Local Council CPI held a public meeting over the prevailing violence in the state, at Heikrujam Mamang Loyalakpa Laibung on Friday.
According to a statement released by Konthoujam Local Council CPI, during the meeting, MSC CPI state secretary Leis hangthem Thoiren expressed that the ongoing violence will come to an end when the Kuki militants are taken fully under control, which the Indian government has the power to do so.
The violence escalated due the wrong steps taken up by elected representatives, which is as clear as day.
If central forces were sincere, the violence could also be controlled, even if it is for a few hours.
However, the government of India is continuing to watch the violence escalate, which is questionable, he added.
Later, after the conclusion of the meeting, the gathering shouted slogans like "PM Modi resign", "Solve Manipur unrest immediately", "Protect Manipur's integrity", and "Immediate rehabilitation for the displaced" .
