Kakching, October 29 2023:
A silent protest by covering their faces was staged by Kakching denizens and people displaced from Moreh staying in relief camps at Kakching Lamkhai on Sunday when the convoy of chief minister N Biren passed through the area during his visit to lay foundation stones of various projects at Keirak Kangjeibung.
The protest was organised by Langsai Thouna, Kakching against the alleged indifferent attitude of the central government towards the plight of Meetei community.
As the CM's convoy reached Kakching Lamkhai, the agitators covered their eyes and faces with clothes in protest.
Though the convoy slowed down at the protest site, it did not stop as Kakching Police maintained top vigil to prevent any untoward incident.
