Imphal, December 31:
Even as the election code of conduct has come into force in Manipur, the Jiribam District Demand Committee has resolved not to relax its ongoing agitation for conversion of Jiribam sub-division into a full fledged revenue district, said a press release issued by JDDC.
Calling upon the Jiribam people not to celebrate the commencement of the New Year, JDDC has banned all kinds of entertainment programmes in the subdivision.
Citing transfer/reposting of some MCS officers by the State Govt after seeking approval from the Election Commission of India, the JDDC urged the Govt to declare Jiribam a revenue district in the same manner even as the election code of conduct has come into force, conveyed the release.
