Thoubal, August 12 2023:
A sit-in protest was held at Yairipok Bishnunaha on Saturday denouncing suspension of Nongpok Sekmai police station OC inspector Keisam Premkumar while demanding revocation of the order.
During the protest which was organised by Bishnunaha Youth Federation Yairipok (BYFY) and local Meira Paibi group, the agitators held placards and chanted slogans like suspension of OC Premkumar is condemnable, revoke the suspension order, don't make OC Premkumar scapegoat, cannot accept different laws for Kuki and Meetei, and DGP should resign among others.
Speaking to media persons, one of the protestors Ksh Roma and BYFY president L Ananada stated that they condemn DGP Manipur's action against OC K Premkumar who is a very good officer and a award winning sportsperson.
The people are with him as the May 4 incident occurred in such a situation that he alone could not have controlled a mob of more than 10,000 people, they added.
