DON'T WORSEN IT Look at the issues humanely |
The Central rule in Manipur under the leadership of Governor Ved Prakash Marwah has begun to give its bitter taste to the poor people of Manipur. As it is, the people are really furious over the way the Government of India has been treating them during the last five decades. Apart from forcible annexation of Manipur to the Indian union, a valuable part of the land that truely and historically belonged to the Manipuris -- the Kabo valley had been gifted away to Burma. Now a strong apprehension has been created in the minds of the people that the centre is gradually succumbing to the pressure of NSCN-IM to dismember the territorial boundary of Manipur in order to pave way for the creation of greater Nagaland. This apprehension was an offshoot of the agreement signed between the representative of GOI, K Padmanabhaia and NSCN-IM leader, Th Muivah at Bangkok on June 14 last to extend the ceasefire beyond Nagaland without territorial limits. The people of the state strongly suspect the motive of the central government, and believe that they have been cheated by the BJP-led NDA government at the centre. The people of the state can't be blamed for the present turmoil since they had time and again warned the central government against any move to divide the Manipuri people comprising 31 tribes on communal line, and disintegrate the existing territorial boundary of Manipur to appease just a Nagaland-based insurgent organization. After all these problems arbitrarily thrust on the people of the state, now the administration is unleashing all its brute forces against the trouble-laden masses.
