Imphal, November 01 2023:
Volunteers of Youth of Manipur (YOM) met BJP Manipur Pradesh president A Sharda on Wednesday morning after an overnight stay near her Brahmapur Aribam Leikai resident braving water cannons and tear gas shells used by the security forces to disperse them.
The volunteers of YOM finally met A Sharda on Wednesday during which the volunteers condemned the excessive force used by the security personnel including resorting to water cannon during the cold winter night and firing of tear gas shells.
Addressing media persons after meeting the BJP state president, one of the members of YOM said that when the YOM members asked the BJP state chief about what steps her party has initiated against the BJP MLAs from Kuki-Zo communities who are trying to destroy the territorial integrity of Manipur, A Sharda maintained that whatever she had to do regarding the matter had been already put forward to the BJP national chief in May last.
On being further asked what action would be taken up against the Kuki BJP MLAs and whether they will remain as BJP members since the party has not taken up any steps against them, A Sharda told the YOM representatives not to indulge in politics.
