State Government set on the right track when it involved Manipur Development Society in the development of sports. Two month football training programme launched under the supervision of a British footballer and sponsored by MDS will go a long way in the promotion of the game. Similar programme need to be organised for other sports discipline also by involving Government departments. IFCD can be asked to sponsor a training programme on hockey. Likewise PWD for promotion of boxing. There are hundreds of sports disciplines, which cannot flourish for want of fund. If there is proper flow of fund training programmes will be galore, which will yield better result. Manipur is sports power house. In the NE sports meet Manipur continues to occupy coveted position. In the national games also Manipur is the reigning champion among states. If the services consisting of talented sports persons of the country do not participate in the National Games none will be able to beat Manipur in medal tally. The other states in NE region are consciously pondering how Manipur promotes sports in Manipur. Involvement of Government departments in the promotion of the games will be eye opener to other states. It will not be surprising when other states imitate what Manipur is doing in its own land. The domineering role played by sports stars of the state in the field of sports has earned a place of importance for Manipur enviable to other states. Now Manipur is up. It will never be down again. Because realisation has dawned in the minds of those at the helms of affairs. Minus sports Manipur stands nowhere. There is a saying common men’s views shape the opinion of the men in power. As the Government takes up more sports development programmes it fulfils the expectations of the masses, who are thirsty for more achievement. Sports lovers in particular and people of the state as a whole love to see yellowish glittering medal worn by sports stars at end of a competition. We have seen the yellowish colour medal worn by Manipuri in Asian Games and bronze in Olympic. More need to be achieved. The thirst for medal is increasing as the Asian games approaches slated for next year. Chief Minister O. Ibobi having ruled the state for more than 11 years has found time to focus on sports. He will continue to do so. His speech made at the inaugural function reveals what is in store. Sports persons are happy. If they are happy the entire masses are also happy. If not for making the masses happy why should we elect a Government to rule over us? Go ahead do more. Manipur has reaped the benefit of having a stable and powerful Government.

Mail News Service
Imphal, May 6 : Governor Gurbachan Jagat today inaugurated the 41st Shumang Leela Festival organized by Manipur State Kala Akademi at Iboyaima Shumang Leela Shanglen, Palace Compound here.
Addressing the opening ceremony of the festival, Governor Gurbachan distributed awards to 11 female group artistes . He congratulated the award winners of the last edition of the Festival . This year 20 groups are participating, including 8 of males and 12 of females.
This performing art form of Manipur loosely translated as courtyard theatre has provided entertainment to the general public for decades. Even though it started with comic genre to humour the kings and noblemen, it became a powerful tool for conveying social messages. The older generation still remember the leelas based on Khamba-Thoibi, episodes from Moirang parva, Mahabharata, Ramayana, etc. Later on the genre of Eshei Leela came which was popular among the youngsters as it was styled on modern Hindi films but its popularity did not last long.
Such a vibrant performing art is now finding it difficult to maintain its popularity because of the onslaught of modern entertainment forms like cinema, television, etc. Shumang Leela had stood strongly against proscenium theatre when the latter was in it’s hey day, but both art forms are facing serious crises against the modern technology.
It must be the responsibility of every citizen of the State to ensure that the rich tradition of Shumang Leela is preserved and propagated for posterity. Research needs to be done on it so that this rich and vibrant art form is understood in its totality. The tendency to absorb styles from cinema does not do much good to this art form and many experts believe that this has led to its stagnation and many believe that, without patronage, this art form may wither away like many other art forms of this State. During the time of the Maharajas, the number of art forms and its proponents were less and the State could provide very strong patronage for its growth. Similarly, in the field of games and sports also the State could provide patronage. But with increased population, and with the opening up of frontiers, many exotic art forms have become popular with numerous adherents and it is with these that the traditional art form has to compete. In many parts of the country, many indigenous art forms have vanished but in Manipur, because of its rich traditions, many of the art forms still survive in the 21st century and for this he congratulated the people of Manipur for their contribution, especially the promoters and artists of these rare art forms.

DIMAPUR, May 6 NNN: The North East Students Organisation (NESO) is very much concerned on the report of the Parliamentary Panel for the abolition of the DoNER ministry.
The NESO team is likely to go to New Delhi in the next few days’ time to apprise the Central leaders not to abolish the DoNER ministry.
Sources from Guwahati informed Newmai News Network that the apex students’ body of the North East region will oppose the move of the Parliamentary Panel in this regard. NESO leaders are now in Guwahati and are preparing to go to the national capital.
It can be noted here that the Parliamentary Panel had made scathing attacks on performance of the DoNER Ministry saying that the ministry had failed to live up to the expectation.
The Parliamentary Panel further said the dismal performance of the DoNER ministry has been the reason that it had pointed out in its report to abolish the ministry.
The Parliamentary Panel had recently recommended that government should consider the handicaps and devise ways out either by placing the DoNER Ministry directly under the Prime Minister’s Office or evolve mechanism so that the Ministry could implement its decisions.

KSO wants canal works at IGT taken up

IMPHAL, May 6 NNN : The Kuki Students Organisation (KSO-General Headquarters) takes strong exception over the suspension of construction works at Indira Gandhi Tribal (IGT) University at Makhan village under Sadar Hills in Senapati district in the wake of monetary demands by several militant groups.
“The KSO has come to learn that the construction work which started a year and a half ago is presently in a state of turmoil because of vested interest groups. The KSO had taken a prominent role in the creation of this tribal varsity right from its inception and therefore, does not want to see any problems that could impede its development. This tribal university has a unique history wherein tribal students struggled for their rights in the face of great adversities. The varsity is an outcome of tribal solidarity and exertion of tribal rights in the state. Therefore, the crisis faced by the university at the moment is a matter of concern for the organization,” the apex Kuki students’ body stated.
Stating these facts, the KSO requests all the militant groups to abstain from making monetary demands and life threatening deeds. “The KSO does not want to see this hard earned centre of learning in a state of decadence. The KSO would like to make it clear that any vested interest group that troubles the varsity shall be considered anti-tribal and anti-development. The UG groups involved must stop immediately before losing credibility in the eyes of the public,” it added.
The KSO also learnt that the Amarkantak University where the IGTU is being affiliated has meted out step-motherly treatment to the varsity in all aspects of development. The tribal students in the state will not take this injustice lying down and shall take all necessary measures to rectify the wrongs. As such the Amarkantak University is advised to tread carefully otherwise it will face punitive and legal action in civil courts.
“The construction company which is undertaking the development of the university is also advised to execute works in earnest without any fear. At the same time, the company must also understand that the KSO will not condone any sub-standard quality in the construction works,” the Kuki students’ body said.

New Delhi, May 6 (ANI): An online magazine ‘Cobrapost’ has accused the State Bank of India (SBI), the Life Insurance Corporation of India (LIC) and various other banks and private insurers of indulging in money laundering. Earlier in March, Cobrapost had accused India’s leading private banks ICICI, Axis and HDFC of being involved in money laundering.
Through a sting operation, Cobrapost exposed that these leading private banks were helping customers convert black money into white, which the Reserve Bank of India (RBI) had initiated investigations into.
According to reports, Cobrapost has named and accused various banks in the country such as SBI, Bank of Baroda, Punjab National Bank, Canara Bank, IDBI Bank, Indian Bank, Yes Bank, Federal Bank and Dhanlaxmi Bank in its second sting operation.
The online magazine also named insurers such as LIC, Reliance Capital, Birla Sunlife and TATA AIG.
Termed as “Operation Red Spider 2″, Cobrapost states that the operation, “establishes beyond doubt that money laundering is not confined to private banks, and is not an aberration, as is being made out in certain quarters in the wake of the first expose on March 14 in which HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank and Axis Bank were shown involved in money laundering; it is rather endemic overarching the entire banking system and insurance sector, without exception, however shocking it might be”.

Congress regime full of scams: BJP

Mail News Service Imphal, May 6 : Tapir Gao, National General Secretary, BJP addressing a press conference today said rampant corruptions are prevailing in all aspects of administration. Cost of employment is sky high; Rs. 30 to 40 lakhs for Sub-Overseer, Rs. 25 to 30 lakhs for Sub-Inspector, Rs. 17 to 20 lakhs for Staff-nurse […]

Mail News Service
Imphal, May 6 : Tapir Gao, National General Secretary, BJP addressing a press conference today said rampant corruptions are prevailing in all aspects of administration. Cost of employment is sky high; Rs. 30 to 40 lakhs for Sub-Overseer, Rs. 25 to 30 lakhs for Sub-Inspector, Rs. 17 to 20 lakhs for Staff-nurse and lakhs for contractual posts. Files do not move without money. The Chief Minister, having transferred all the funds in the account – 8449, liberally spending out at an exorbitant rate. Percentage of umpteen works for engineers, bureaucrats officers etc. is a must for a cheque-leaf he charged.
Even an under-5 child is not excepted. Rape, molestation, stalking, voyeurism, acid-attacks and what nots on women and these news-items occupy an ample space in the dailies every day. He asked the CM, Where is your Fast Track Court .
Wild police-stories of – steeling iron rods, involving in rape, being instruments of insurgent outfits in serving demand letters, hurling grenades to the public, looting of money, disguising as underground-cadres, trafficking narcotic substances and contrabands etc. Root cause is the bizarre recruitment – a lump sum amount for physical test, written test and viva-voice he said.
It is a vivid example that the police personnel are brazen enough to use the weapon at will that Lisam Mala Devi, Chairperson of Thoubal Child Welfare Committee ran after Mala and fired upon her.
The story began with Methaquanalones, morphine injection and then heroin (alias No.4/Brown Sugar) which were imported. Phensedyl and other codeine-containing cough syrups preceded Spasmoproxyvon (SP). Smuggling of Acetyl anhydride from outside the state to Myanmar via Manipur was a silent happening. And now it is Pseudoephedrine which is providing a lucrative business. There has been a series of Pseudoephedrine haul and it has become historic that one son of Congress MLA T.N. Haokip, a Colonel Ajay kumar Chaudhary, PRO of Defence Wing and a team of Commando etc. were apprehended with Pseudoephedrine worth crores of Rupees. Officer-in-charge Inspector Ranjit of Special Investigation Team (SIT) was immediately transferred after disbanding the SIT for capturing Pseudoephedrine worth Rs. 3 crores at Imphal Airport, eliciting the alleged involvement of a relative and dear ones of the Chief Minister. Honesty and sincerity on the part of the Home Department and strict vigil at “transit-areas” are called for to alleviate the situation.
Much has been talked about the Loktak Development Authority and the govt. being hand-in-glove with LDA to swindle a huge amount from the scam worth Rs. 240 crores. The tender was awarded to one K-Pro Infra Works Pvt. Ltd which happened to be the only firm who joined in the fray. K-Pro is a firm established only 4 days before the tender and it claimed that it was Delhi-based and stationed in an address which was physically not existent.
The firm cleared phumdis to a negligible extent by destroying the phumdis huts. It appears that K-Pro Infra Works Pvt. Ltd is the one who was so established for the purpose of pilfering money from the public-exchequer. CM Ibobi, the Chairman of LDA must be held responsible for the whole mess and BJP will not tolerate his silence in the scam. The sufferings of the dependent fishermen of the lake is being shared by BJP always. Ibobi destroyed the huts in the floating hut-dwellers over and above the ruling of the High Court to maintain status-quo. If Ibobi, the Chief Minister of Manipur is above the High Court, is questionable he said.
