Expressing concern that the wave of MP election has been felt in the valley, Khwairamband Ima Keithel Joint Coordinating Committee has given a message that no one should prepare and no signs of preparedness must be shown unless normalcy is restored in the state and the Kukis are taught a lesson.
Khwairamband Ima Keithel Joint Coordinating Committee held a press conference at Manipur Press Club on Saturday.
While briefing to the media, convener Khwairamband Ima Keithel Joint Coordinating Committee Laishram Memma said that the wave of upcoming MP election has been felt in the valley.
If anyone is found preparing and campaigning for the election amidst the prevailing crisis in the state, the person will be taught a lesson, Memma warned.
Memma also has demanded a befitting action against all those involved in February 15 incident at Churachandpur. Memma said, “Why is the state and central government silent over the recent public protest in Churachandpur. Is there any hidden agenda? If there is any such, it must be made known to the public so that the public can decide whether the agenda is acceptable or not”.
The Convenor also claimed that Kukis are given a free hand and they could do whatever they want in the hills. Yet the government could not initiate any action as per the law against them. However, in the valley, the state government has given different warnings to the village defenders who are guarding and protecting the village.
Raising questions as to why no central forces were deployed or sent to prevent the recent incident in Churachandpur wherein the public attacked the DC office, Memma said that all those involved in the incident must be arrested and befitting punishment as per law should be taken up.
