Imphal, June 24 2023:
While stating that it would form human chains during the all-political party meeting convened by the Union home minister and pray for peace in the state, Nongpok Pana Apunba Lup (NONGPAL) has urged the legislators of Manipur to press the central leaders to implement NRC and not President's Rule (PR) in Manipur during the meeting.
Addressing media persons at OYO community hall, Kongpal Thongkhong on Friday, NONGPAL convenor Laishram Vivekanan-da stated that though the approach of people from different sections of the society could be different, the ultimate demand of the people is to protect the territorial integrity of Manipur.
Maintaining that NONGPAL is also demanding for implementation of NRC in the state and is against imposition of President's Rule in the state, Vivekananda said that the illegal immi-
grants should be deported from the state and the government should take up measures to restore peace.
While stating that the state leaders who are in Delhi should not come back without meeting the central leaders and bringing a solution to the unrest situation in the state, he further informed that during the proposed meeting of the all political parties in Delhi which will start from 3 pm on Saturday NONGPAL will form human chains starting from Porompat DC Office till Iril River auto parking.
NONGPAL is a conglomeration of 12 clubs and organisations.
