Imphal, April 07 2024:
RPI (Athawale) candidate for Inner Manipur parliamentary constituency for the 18th Lok Sabha election Thounaojam Maheshwar has said that he is contesting the election to bring solution to the crisis in Manipur and not to merely shout in the Parliament.
Maheshwar offered prays at Keithel Lairembis (deities) of Mayang Imphal, Yumnam Huidrom, Lamsang, Kameng, Lamdeng, Myanglangjing and others on Sunday and sought blessings from women vendors of the markets.
Maheshwar told the vendors that the upcoming 18th Lok Sabha election being held amidst the ongoing violence is a crucial one for electing the right representative.
The crisis in the state and mistakes from the past could only be resolved through discussions on table and Parliament, he said adding that his sole objective for contesting the polls is to bring solution to the crisis and normalcy.
While alleging that candidates in the fray and political parties are scheming to suppress him by spreading false propaganda and lodging complaints to ECI, Maheshwar appealed to the people to stand united to face all these challenges.
He also appealed to the women and village volunteers guarding the peripheral villages since the past 11 months to ensure a corruption-free and fair election.
