Imphal, February 24:
Pledging to extend unstinted support to MEELAL's agitation till the demand for fully implementing Meetei Mayek in the State is met, DESAM has today appealed to the State Govt to work out an amicable solution and help end the ongoing agitation before it seriously affects the academic atmosphere of the students.
In a statement, DESAM publicity secy Kh Shyamsundar Luwang said that the Govt alone would be held responsible and would not be spared if the ongoing agitation begins to disturb the academic atmosphere of the students.
Coming down heavily on the State Govt for remaining silent on the Meetei Mayek issue for the last two decades despite the State Assembly having passed a resolution for full implementation of the script in the State, Luwang questioned whether the Government was waiting for some sort of bloodshed to take place before it begins fully implementing the Meetei Mayek script in the State and further said that present situation in the State would not have arisen had the previous Govt been a little responsive to the demands of the Meetei Mayek activist.
