Condemning the government initiating conduct of election before resettlement of people displaced by the conflict and taking shelters in relief camps, internally displaced people (IDPs) residing in the relief camp at Langmeidong Girls' High School staged protest on Thursday.
Speaking on the sidelines of the protest, one of the participants lamented that many people displaced by the conflict which broke out on May 3 last year are taking shelters in relief camps with no sign of returning to their respective homes.
Urging both state and central governments to restore normalcy and resettle the displaced people at their ancestral homes, the protestor asserted that they will cast votes as and when they return home.
