649

IMPHAL, Aug 16: Commemorating the sacrifice of Pebam Chittaranjan Mangang, the XI Students`™ Martyrdom Day-2015 was observed by Manipur Students`™ Federation (MSF) today at Takhellambam Leikai Youth Club Complex.

The function was attended by Retd Judge C Upendra, MSF president Kh Serajjudin, Senior Advocate of High Court of Manipur Kheidem Mani and Takhellambam Leikai Youth Club president S Sanaton as chief guest, president, guest of honour and special guest.

Giving his keynote address, MSF general secretary Maibam Bidyaraj Meetei said that Armed Forces Special Powers`™ Act has been imposed in the State in the name of fighting insurgency. Under this black law the security forces have been torturing innocent people of the State.

Demanding to repeal this black law from the State, Chittaranjan sacrificed his life for the people by becoming the human torch to encourage the people to fight against this black law.

Senior Advocate Khaidem Mani speaking at the function regarding the present scenario in the state said that the students started protesting because the politicians who are supposed to fulfil the wishes of the people have considerably failed to do so and the politicians of the State should feel ashamed about this.

He urged the people to select and elect the right leaders who are selfless and dedicated instead of selling their votes for some petty cash during the time of election.
