MRF condemns killing
Source: The Sangai Express

Imphal, February 20 2009: The Manipur Research Forum (MRF) has strongly condemned the brutal and senseless killing of SDO Kasom Khullen Dr Th Kishan and his two staff, Aribam Rajen and Yumnam Token.

A press release issued by the forum described late Dr Kishan as one of the sensitive and courageous minds in Manipur who sought wholeheartedly to bridge the gap between ground realities and academic intervention, between the subjective and objective appreciation of key issues confronting society.

He will be remembered as a committed activist, an incisive scholar and as a brave administrator, it said.

Observing that Dr Kishan is not the first nor is he likely to the last to fall prey to banal violence, the forum called upon all to introspect on how many more such deaths the Manipuri society shall face with conspiracies of silence.

It also mentioned that Dr Kishan used to contribute articles to the journal "Eastern Quarterly".
