MODIfied Northeast India will be rewarding the suspended Manipur Police personnel, who were victims of “communal warfare”.
It is normal for the security personals posted on February 14, 2016 to be on high alert as two Chief Ministers of Nagaland and Mizoram were invited at the Luita Phanit fest in Ukhrul. Earlier, both the leaders have made the state unrest with their communal remarks with regards to the three ILPS Bills passed by the Government of Manipur, which MODIfied Northeast India never expected from the two leaders, said a release.
We are not supporting the Police act of torturing and harassing public in the name of bringing peace and normalcy in the region. But, frisking, checking and even detaining on suspicious is normal happening in a conflict zone like Manipur where AFSPA is imposed. Even ministers and MLAs are at the receiving ends from security personnels.
The release issued by Mohen Naorem of MODIfied Northeast India said that on February 14, a team of Manipur Police Commando led by Sub Inspector Md Imtiyaz Rahaman stopped and checked the car in which Naga Student Federation (NSF) leaders were travelling to attend the fest at Ukhrul. We condemned sincerely if Police were brute and using powers to the students. However, it is more unfortunate to get communal diktats from NSF to impose a ban on Meetei owned vehicles on Naga dominated areas. Who is playing communal card – SI Md. Imtiyaz Rahaman or the NSF? Such politics are not accepted by MODIfied Northeast India. Why NSF targeting Meetei only. And why Government of Manipur suspended the 5 cops?
The Cops who were following the orders of their senior officials should not be treated like scape-goats. Government should not punish them without proper investigations of the incidents, demanded the body.
Acknowledging the service and responsibilities of the suspended cops in their line of duty, MODIfied Northeast India said that it would reward and felicitate them in a grand function in Imphal shortly.
It also requests the security personnel to honour and respect the lives of every citizen in future.

May be Meiteis are too good to be Manipuri. On the other, GoM is declaring himself as such a weak govt. who can be easily handled by such a frontal organization of the UG who did a lot of heinous crime in the state. Where is the govt. taking us? The govt. needs to come out of their dream from waking up everyday with money and going to bed every night with money.
Kudos to Imphal times for wakening up the govt. Hope this article reach to their eyes and ear.
