Chandel, Aug 24: A mass silent protest rally was jointly organised today at Chandel District head quarter by the Anal Naga Students Union, Chandel, Chiefs’ Association Chakpikarong and Anal Sinnu Ruwl (Womens Union) Chakpikarong, to mark a protest against the failure of the state government to suspend SDO/ BDO Chakpikarong Sub-division Lalramsang Infimate as demanded earlier by the ANSU.

The mass rally today at Chandel District head quarter started from Indoor Studium and more than 700 public, students and women folks and village chiefs from Chakpikarong sub-division participated in the rally by holding placards and festoons carrying slogans like ‘We want immediate suspension of irresponsible SDO Chakpikarong’, ‘Public money is not for SDO purse’, ‘Let the rule of law prevail’, ‘SDO office is not for self business’, ‘No transfer no peace’ etc.

The rally covered the areas of Japhou Bazar, Traffic point and finally converged to the DC Office where the representatives of ANSUC, chief association and women leaders submitted their memorandum to the chief minister through DC Chandel, H Deelip Singh around 12.45 this afternoon.

In the meantime, the memorandum submitted to the chief minister through DC Chandel today mentioned that the ANSUC, Chiefs Association Chakpikarong and Womens Union Chakpikarong have jointly submitted their memorandum on July 24 to Chief Secretary Manipur for the suspension of the SDO/BDO Chakpikarong sub-division Lalramsang Infimate on his serious dereliction of his dutiy.

The memorandum further mentioned that as a result of his irregularities in attending office, all the centre and state sponsored schemes and funds implementation were hindered.

The memoradum also mentioned that over and above the house listing and house Census 2011 is a failure in Chakpikarong because of his irregularities and lack of coordination with his staff, and the joint organisation has strongly reacted against his artificial style of functioning in public office demanding his immediate suspension by the state government.
