Dimapur, Jul 15 : The Tribal Peoples’ Forum Manipur (TPFM) takes cognizance of “systematically campaign” allegedly by a section of the Meitei community to ignite misunderstanding and conflicts between communities living in Imphal.“TPFM is not surprised why the Home Department of Manipur Government, where O. Ibobi, who himself is a Meitei is the concerned minister categorically maintaining silence on the projection of one sided story of the bygone ugly scenes of the ethnic clashes events in Manipur at Manipur Press Club,” the forum stated in a note today.
The forum did not say what the “ugly scenes” were at “Manipur Press Club” or when.
The forum explained in its own words: “The TPFM also not surprises why the so called Meitei civil societies like United Committee Manipur and All Manipur United Clubs Organisations who them claimed working for the integrity and social harmony of Manipur remain a mute spectators. This shows that Meitei chauvinism inhabits a strong importance in their ego-centric world.
The really would be hard to absorb, but the truth is that these Meiteis are communal than what it looks and that, strengthened with a very narrow-mindedness, disturb the fabric of their sane reasoning.”
The forum queried: “Is Mr. O. Ibobi planning for another such conflict? Is this not a larger game plan of the involved so called Meitei people going haywire?
If not why remains a silence and all his jawans commanded to remains mute spectators of these communally intended photos exhibition organised by the one such Meitei civil society? For whose and what interests?”
Stating to condemn “all type of killings,” the forum also condemned “any activity that promotes communalism and call upon Mr. O. Ibobi led Government to acts upon those responsible for creating discordant among the different communities.”
