Imphal, January 19, 2011:
The proscribed UNLF has expressed deep condolences on the demise of noted literary figure Maharaj kumari Binodini, who passed away on January 17 due to prolonged illness.
Not only was 'Imasi' Binodini, a distinguished writer but also a socio-cultural activist who dedicated her life to enrich and promote Manipuri culture to the outside world, said a UNLF statement issued by its senior publicity officer Ksh yoiheiba.
While hailing MK Binodini as a committed women activist, the UNLF also described her as a 'true nationalist' with reference to MK Binodini returning the Padmashree Award, conferred by the Government of India, in protest against abuse of human rights by Indian security forces.
The armed outfit also shared the sorrow of the bereaved family.
