IMPHAL, July 11: Secretary of Communist Party of India (CPI) Manipur State Council Dr M Nara has demanded the state government to withdraw the controversial Manipur Regulation of Visitors, Tenants and Migrant Workers Bill, 2015 and come up with a strong bill acceptable to the people at the earliest.

Talking to this daily, Dr Nara informed that a special meeting of Party Secretariate of CPI-MSC was convened at its office at Irabot Bhawan today morning during which the present tense situation in the state was discussed at length and adopted certain resolutions.

He maintained that the meeting resolved to enact a fresh bill in place of the Manipur Regulation of Visitors, Tenants and Migrant Workers Bill, 2015 which was passed during the 10th Session of Manipur Legislative Assembly in March 2015 and resume class in all the educational institutions which were closed down by an order of the government.

Stating that deprivation of education for student is against the Right to Education, he said that the meeting also resolved to lift the indefinite curfew imposed in Imphal West and Imphal East district at the earliest as people especially those daily bread earners are facing immense hardship to sustain livelihood.

The secretary of CPI-MSC added that he himself and several other party workers are engaging in the present state of affair at their own risks in absence of curfew pass.
