Imphal, July 29 2023:
Locals in Langol area have outrightly rejected the move to deploy Assam Rifles in Langol Area in place of other Central security personnel.
To denounce the 'proposed' move of replacing security (GR) personnel and show its resentment towards the 'partisan' attitude of Assam Rifles in handling the crisis situation in the State, a sit-in was staged today at Meitei Langol Mayai Leikai.
Womenfolk from Langol Aying Leikai also attended the sit-in protest.

Speaking at the occasion, secretary of Langol Mayai Leikai Women Development Association Sapam Thoi said that they have come to learn from a highly placed source that 'Army' personnel deployed in Langol area will soon be replaced by Assam Rifles personnel.
The sit-in was specially organized to oppose the move if it is actually true, she said.
Instead of maintaining neutrality and helping restoration of peace, Assam Rifles personnel have on many occasions found to be 'siding with the narco-terrorists' and causing more tension, she charged.
Moreover, arson of Meitei houses, gun and bomb attacks by Kukis are rampant wherever Assam Rifles are deployed, she alleged.
"We have lost faith in AR for their 'biased attitude' in controlling further violence," she said while urging authorities concerned to continue deployment of GR personnel in the Langol area or any State force who know the sentiment of the people.
The womenfolk in the Langol area are also ready to intensify their protest if their voices are not heard and Assam Rifles personnel are forcefully deployed in and around the Langol area, she added.
