Imphal, December 04 2023:
Volunteers of Imagi Meira on Monday staged protest in front of Manipur Legislative Assembly gate demanding action against the 10 Kuki MLAs, who openly revolted by raising the demand for a separate administration for Kuki-Zo people in Manipur.
Speaking in this regard, Imagi Meira convenor Sujata recalled the submission of memorandum to the Chief Minister on November 21 demanding appropriate action against the 10 MLAs and further sought a response on the action taken against them.
As no positive response was forthcoming till date, the protest was launched seeking reason for the genuine proposal, especially in the backdrop of the communal conflict continuing for over seven months, she added.
The convenor further informed that she and a co-convenor of the association went inside the assembly and met with the officials including the joint secretary, who claimed that relevant documents were forwarded six times.
Sujata said she urged the officials concerned to make arrangements for a meeting with the speaker and the chairman of the committee concerned to which the officials stated that they will do the needful within 2-3 days.
She also contended that it is time for the people to teach the so-called leaders a befitting lesson.
