While terming the formation of administrative committee to oversee functioning of Panchayats without conducting election as unconstitutional, All India Trade Union Congress, Manipur State Committee (AITUC/MSC) demanded revocation of the said committee.
In a release, AITUC/MSC secretary Kh Samungou questioned why panchayat election could not be conducted as the government is ready for holding the Lok Sabha elections.
Noting that CSOs are against conducting the Lok Sabha election amid the conflict situation in the state, he also opined that compared to the parliamentary polls, the Panchayat election is a minor issue.
Samungou then reiterated the demand that DCs revoke the orders issued for formation of administrative committee as it will create inconveniences to people living in rural areas.
