Imphal, April 05 2009:
Censuring the press statement issued by MUSU president Ksh Narayan in connection with the forged BA certificate of Haorungbam Ashirjit alias Boycha Luwang, with full knowledge that the MU Executive Council had declared the MA certificate issued to Ashirjit invalid on February 15 and that Ashirjit was also expelled from DESAM on November 29 last year, the DESAM has accused Narayan of attempting to malign the image of DESAM as well as Manipur University.
This was stated by DESAM secretary general Y Ratankumar during a press meet today.
The press statement might have been motivated by personal animosity or the prospect of gaining some mileage for the forthcoming MUSU elections, he said.
Saying that dragging the name of DESAM in the matter regarding the forged certificate of Ashirjit lacked rationality, Ratankumar also reacted to the statements of SFI and MU Research Club.
While admitting that DESAM was wrong in assaulting Narayan, Ratankumar, however, maintained that they were only punishing a senseless person.
Making statements without delving into why DESAM acted in such manner would amount to standing for a particular side, he said.
Ratankumar also blamed MU authority on the matter.
Further actions will be initiated against Narayan if he does not tender an apology to DESAM, he added.
