Taking serious note of the long standing demand for enforcement of Inner Line Permit System (ILPS) in Manipur, the State Cabinet today deliberated at length on the issue.
The meeting decided to convene a special Cabinet meeting on July 11 and take a concrete decision on the issue.
In the meantime, the State Government would also seek the Union Home Ministry's opinion on the issue, informed a senior Minister.
Before the State Cabinet takes a decision, all the merits and demerits of the issue would be examined first.
The modality under which the ILPS is enforced in other States would also be studied.
Moreover, the State Government would send an official letter to the Union Home Ministry seeking its opinion on the issue.
Today's Cabinet meeting was presided by Chief Minister Okram Ibobi.
