Candid Camera: These few comparisions provides a peek into the gross discrepepancies discovered between the mug shots of electorates in the electoral roll bank (left) and those taken at the polling booths

Exposing the rampancy of muscle power and intimidation in the hill districts at the recently conducted Manipur Assembly polls, tell-tale irregularities have been noticed while comparing the photos of the voters shot at the polling stations and the voters electoral roll bank. Repoll in several stations are expected. As a means of emphasizing transparency in the polls, the ECI laid down norms that the voters should be photographed at the polling station bearing the ink mark on the finger and later compared with the photos in the electoral roll post poll.
The voters comparison for Chandel, Senapati and Kangpokpi ADC was conducted today at the office complex of the Chief Electoral Office at Lamphelpat, beginning from 11 am today and manually scrutinized by three special observers amidst tight security cover. The photo matching was done following 76 complaints made to the CEO of the state by candidates on grounds of unfair means being carried out at the polling stations, the complaints were later referred to the ECI. Out of the complaints, 35 complaints had been acknowledged and further ordered to the CEO for verification by comparing the photos under scrutiny of the ECI observers.The matching session was conducted at the said complex and telecasted in three television screen which could be witnessed by the complaining candidates and other concerned officials. The television screen listed the gender, age, ID card number, photo in the electoral roll and the photo taken at the time of polling.Media persons present at the site witnessed the tell tale irregularities in the comparison. Photos in the electoral roll of male individuals were compared to female ones and vice versa. Different individuals in the compared photographs, same person impersonating others, women with covered faces,blurred photographs ,photographs taken against the light and cannot be identified, photos of electoral roll missing and vice versa.“It is perceived that there are certain irregularities in the comparisons, the verification reports will be made by the observers to the ECI and we shall see if repolls are recommended”, CEO, Lawmkunga told IFP.
Talking to IFP Daokhomang Khongsai, MLA of Saikhul a/c asserted that the memory card of the mobile phone used for taking photographs of voters at Thangal Surung, 46/14  polling station of the said constituency was reportedly lost and no voter comparison can be made. “ It is clearly evident from the comparisons made today that proxy voting has been rampant and no further complaints need not be made ,the concerned must take up measures for repoll in the identified polling stations”,he stated.

The First HYMS North East Football Cup 2012

The First HYMS North East Football Cup 2012, brainchild of Hyderabad Manipuri Society (HYMS) was held on 4th and 5th of February, 2012 at Gymkhana Ground, Secunderabad, Andhra Pradesh. With a strong support from its members and well wishers, HYMS brought together football teams from NE community. This football cup was an important event of HYMS annual calendar.

Hyderabad Manipuri Society (HYMS) was formed after a detailed discussion and coming together of likeminded people. It was inaugurated formally in University of Hyderabad football ground in 2011, June. It was attended by nearly 200 Manipuri residents of Hyderabad. HYMS was formed with an aim to set up a platform for the people of Manipur who are currently residing in and around Hyderabad. HYMSs’ main objective is to provide better connectivity among Manipuris in Hyderabad and it acts as an agent for such a thought out connectivity. It also extends support when required to this group of people apart from organizing cultural event, community awareness programmes and sports activities. With such activities and objectives in mind, HYMS aims to spread peace, harmony, mutual respect of ‘differences’ between different communities.

HYMS maintains an annual calendar. In the last eight months since its formation, HYMS has managed to rise up to many occasions which deserve appreciation. In its infancy period, HYMS has oranised a sit-in-protest against the draconian AFSPA (1958) on 2nd Oct. 2011 at Ambedkar Statue, Tank Bund, Hyderabad in collaboration with National Alliance for People Movement : http://www.thehindu.com/todays-paper/tp-national/tp-andhrapradesh/article2507525.ece

The First HYMS North East Football Cup 2012

It also has started a signature campaign against the same act and in support of iconic Irom Sharmila Chanu. On Oct. 29, 2011, HYMS has organised Thabal Chongba, calling on Manipuris from Hyderabad for a light and hearty get together. It was a huge success with a turnout of about 300 Manipuris. The Thabal went on till 11.30 at night. A week after this event, on 4th November, 2011, HYMS collaborated with the Manipuri students of University of Hyderabad to show solidarity to Irom Sharmila and to celebrate her Iron will as she completed 11th years on 4th November. The programme witnessed a huge turnout from all sections of life, from all communities and was supported by more than seven student bodies from Hyderabad University and outside. There were candle march, poetry reading, songs, documentary screening and speeches. In collaboration with Manipuri students, we have printed 250 shirts of Irom Sharmila to spread her message and struggle.

HYMS also celebrated Eid and performed an special programme for the Manipuri Muslims. On 17th December, HYMS organised an advanced Christmas Celebration at Secunderabad. It was graced by Don Pasteur from Palestine and other dignitaries. It had gift exchange programme, Christmas Carol and speeches.

The football tournament was an invitation tournament which would bring together different teams from different communities mainly from the North Eastern region of India who are currently residing in Hyderabad, 8 teams participated the tournament.

Following are the team who participated ‘The 1st HYMS North East football tournament’ :

HYMS Team A

The Final match was played between Mizoram (A) and BBC (Bharat Bible College). Mizoram team (A) won the HYMS cup by scoring 2-0 against BBC.

HYMS thanks to all the teams who took part in this event and all the dear ones who help us financially and physically. Thank you for all your support, your keen interest and enthusiastic participation to make this event a GRAND SUCCESS. We could not make this event without your support and co operation.

Lastly, HYMS proudly declares ‘The 1st HYMS North East football tournament’ a GRAND success.

Above all the positive feedbacks which we received from the other teams such as – Kuki Students organization, Bible college, Mizoram team was the icing on the cake.
