Imphal, July 26:
IT News: The Congress Legislature Party called on the Governor of Manipur, Anusuiya Uikey at the Raj Bhavan today urging her to convene an emergency session of the Manipur Legislative Assembly under article 174(1) of the Constitution of India to discuss the gravity of the present turmoil in the state and finding an everlasting solution.
Talking to the media persons while coming out of the Raj Bhavan, the former Chief Minister of Manipur and leader of opposition in the State Assembly questioned why the ruling government in the state felt hesitation for calling a special assembly session to discuss the present crisis in Manipur. He also criticized why the prime minister remained silent for the whole three months of Manipur crisis and demanded the prime minister should answer every question raised about Manipur in the parliament.
Replying to a question on the recent influx of Burmese illegal immigrants, he raised his suspicion on whose instigation some civil society organizations like the Information Centre for Hill Areas Manipur (ICHAM) hindered the 10 km long border fencing during his tenure on the ground that the border fencing would sacrifice some areas of Manipur asking where has the ICHAM gone now.
