Imphal, March 30 2024:
Although its state secretary LThoiren had earlier proposed Sotinkumar as the party candidate for the upcoming Lok Sabha election from Inner Manipur Parliamentary Constituency, Manipur State Council, Communist Party of India (MSC/CPI) has decided to support Ak Bimol, common candidate of the ten political parties, in the Lok Sabha election.
In a release, MSC/CPI informed that the decision was announced during press meet conducted at its Irawat Bhawan office considering the seriousness of the present conflict in the state.
During the press meet, L Sotinkumar also said that he has retracted his decision to contest the election considering the importance of party's decision and urgent need to resolve the conflict and save democracy, secularism and constitution.
