Nationalism, Pretentious Governance And Manipur: Need for critical application of mind

By Amar Yumnam Two recent events are critical testimony to the character and quality of governance we have in Manipur; these two display in full bloom the pretentiousness and non-synchronisation

By Amar Yumnam

Two recent events are critical testimony to the character and quality of governance we have in Manipur; these two display in full bloom the pretentiousness and non-synchronisation with contemporary needs of the present government in Manipur. While one of these two is a single happening, the other is an ongoing one. The single happening is the one in which the head of the people in Manipur came out to the venue of a highway and scolded in full public view a Minister in his council for whatever. Given the historical quality, orientation and commitment of the person exercising the liberty to scold a member of his team in full public view to the cause of the people of the land and the province, it betrays nothing more than a drama. Since he has been in power for an otherwise long time, he must be presuming that drama pays well in this land of theatrics. A character named Mary in Pride and Prejudice of Jane Austen utters and it would be good for him to recall that: “..every impulse of feeling should be guided by reason; and ….exertion should always be in proportion to what is required”. Another character, Darcy, in the same classic states: “Nothing is more deceitful than the appearance of humility. It is often only carelessness of opinion, and sometimes an indirect boast…..The indirect boast [is] highly interesting. The power of doing any thing with quickness is always much prized by the possessor, and often without any attention to the imperfection of the performance”. Well, “the imperfection of the performance” is already before all the people for undertaking something in a very half-cooked approach to the project. First, the lack of supporting funds for full implementation of the project is an information already in public domain. This weakness should not be attempted to be filled by public display of theatrics in governance functioning. Second, the guiding principles of the hurry for the urgency of the current project in terms of a Festival later in the year are still hazy at best. This is a much more important issue than the progress or otherwise in the road-widening project. A festival or fair today in Manipur should clearly spell out the approach and orientation to the integration, knowledge and technological issues desiring to be addressed unlike what all have been done or not done so far.

The second event and an ongoing one is the one relating to the demand for implementation of the Inner Line Permit system in Manipur. This is an area where the government should rather be displaying a sense of urgency and commitment in functioning. If it is not prepared for this it should say so. It should not behave as if it is going to act and without ever acting. The time and energy of the people should not be wasted and tested for long as the contemporary speed of global race for advancement is fast and furious. The clarity of the thinking of government in this issue is paramount as it centres on nationalism. The nationalism issue is now at the heart of the country’s policy-articulation, the evolving political economy of South East Asia and the socio-political turmoil of Manipur. First, the government of India as prevailed at the Centre has never so far given attention to the requirement for nurturing a shared spirit of nationalism which encompasses all. This has led to a situation where ethnicity and localism are stronger components of the prevailing spirit of nationalism rather than the nation state. But the new government under a determined Prime Minister has shown unmistakable signs of addressing this lacuna. The provincial government should now spell out and adopt a policy on how to converge with this. Second, the nationalism of Manipur has for quite a few decades been allowed to be increasingly based on and synchronised with ethnicity and localism. This is a critical moment for Manipur for addressing this social characteristic particularly in the light of the unfolding scenario of linking up with the South East and East Asia.

Here I would like to recall a lecture delivered on August 31 of 1837 by Ralph Waldo Emerson before a Phi, Beta, Kappa Society. He spoke: “It is one of those fables which, out of an unknown antiquity, convey and unlooked-for wisdom, that the gods, in the beginning, divided Man into men, that he might be more helpful to himself; just as the hand was divided into fingers, the better to answer its end…The old fable covers a doctrine ever new and sublime; that there is One Man, – present to all particular men only partially, or through one faculty; and that you must take the whole society to find the whole man”. The upshot my argument is that it is not the time for street plays of the Head of the People of Manipur. There is so much to be thought about in a creative way about what we want and need out of the festivals and fairs being organised here; these issues go much beyond the activities and thinking mind of the contractors on construction of roads. Further Manipur faces critical issues of defining and re-defining nationalism. Any delay in shared application of knowledge and mind on this issue would be at the peril of the society of Manipur. Here the provincial government has an inescapable responsibility on how to mobilise and direct the energies of the people instead of indulging in public theatrics.

Remembering Chittaranjan

Ten years ago, student activist Pebam Chittaranjan laid down his life against imposition of the Armed Forces Special Powers Act, 1958 in the State. Chittaranjan self-immolated on August 15, 2004.

Ten years ago, student activist Pebam Chittaranjan laid down his life against imposition of the Armed Forces Special Powers Act, 1958 in the State. Chittaranjan self-immolated on August 15, 2004. Internationally acclaimed and national award winning film ‘AFSPA 1958’ directed by H Pabankumar is worth recalling, those familiar with the film cannot forget the last scenes of the 77 minutes long documentary film. Chittaranjan spoke on camera about his strong opposition against the Act, catching his breath in between words. Apparently the shot was taken when Chittaranjan was nearing his end, with burn injuries all over his body. This is not to valorise the act of self-immolation by the young activist, neither to initiate a debate on suicide. But this is to put on record the act of resisting the Act, which is still in imposition in the State today. Chittaranjan’s decision to self-immolate with fire may be extreme. Yet he was firm with his opposition even during the last minutes of his life. Here, it is important to recall that 2004 was a significant year in the protest history of Manipur against the Act. The alleged rape and killing of Thangjam Manorama by paramilitary forces on July 11, 2004 evoked widespread protest against the Act. Women activist disrobed themselves in front of the Western gate of Kangla, which was then occupied by the 17 Assam Rifles, in protest against the atrocities of the securities forces meted out to Manorama. They demanded punishment of the personnel who were involved in the act, and also shouted slogans against the security personnel to come and rape them. This was when Manorama’s body was still lying at the mortuary of the Regional Institute of Medical Science. Her family had refused to accept her body in protest. A few days later, activist of Manipur Forward Youth Front tried to self-immolate in front of the Chief Minister’s bungalow. Protest agitations were seen erupting at different corners of the State; this was in spite of the curfews which were imposed by the authority to control the situation. Chittaranjan’s self-immolation protest was very much part of the chain of events that have occurred. The then Prime Minister, Manmohan Singh had promised to replace the Act with a ‘human Act’. Assam Rifles was shifted away from Kangla as a symbolic gesture towards fulfilling peoples’ wish by the Government of India. A committee to review the Act, known as the Justice Jeevan Reddy Committee was instituted. Needless to say, the recommendations of the Committee was not made public, and it could have remained hidden within the confines of the Home ministry had not The Hindu published it for public scrutiny. The Committee has recommended for repealing the Act, no doubt about it. Yet the Government of India, it seems, has been trying to sweep aside the recommendations, which means the Act will stay. This is even more evident from the recent response of the Union Home ministry to the report submitted by Justice Hegde to the apex court, which inquired into alleged fake encounter killings by armed forces and police in Manipur. The ministry has defended the Act that ‘it provides the barest minimum legal protection to the security forces … and defended the protection to security personnel from local police and criminal trial’. It is left to be seen, whether the political parties, except Congress, which promised repeatedly to work towards removal of the Act would have anything to say on the matter. The civil societies, on the other hand should re-prioritise the issues in hand, for justice still eludes Manorama and her family, and many other families.

Meanwhile, the Nambol Police have registered a case in this connection and recovered both vehicles involved in the mishap.

The dead bodies have been handed over to family members after post mortem at the RIMS morgue.

Meanwhile, another head on collision between a Bolero jeep and a canter bus left nine persons injured two of them seriously this noon.

A Bolero jeep driven by a 21 year old with a 20 year old girl in the front passenger seat hit head on with a passenger canter bus along the Imphal-Moreh Highway near Wangjing Uningkhong injuring the two Bolero occupants seriously.

The impact of the collision was such that the whole front portion of the Bolero was crushed into its body and the two occupants remained trapped inside the vehicle.

Locals in the area responded quickly to the collision and tried to free the two trapped inside the tangled vehicle, but to no avail.

The accident also blocked vehicle movement along the busy highway creating a massive traffic jam.

Soon, Thoubal commando team 48 arrived at the scene and tried to rescue the two Bolero occupants. When all their attempts turned futile, they called a JCB from Wangjing and expanded the tangled part of the Bolero to pull out the two.

The commando team rushed them to Thoubal district hospital where they were given first aid and then referred to RIMS.

However, after their conditions deteriorated, they were taken to Shija Hospitals and Research Institute.

Meanwhile, the seven other injured passengers of the bus were taken to Public Hospital, Wangjing and Raj Medicity, North AOC and later discharged.

The young boy identified as Kangabam Yaiphaba son of K Sharat Singh of Kwakeithel and presently staying at the PWD quarter was hit by a Tata Sumo bearing regd number MN 07 L 0361 yesterday around 5:15pm.

The Litan police have registered a case in this regard and seized the Tata Sumo involved in the accident, while the body has been handed over to his parents after post mortem was conducted at the RIMS morgue.

Students acted on their own on ILPS demand says JCILPS students wing

IMPHAL, August 17: Reacting to the State Chief Minister, Okram Ibobi’s strongly worded Independence Day speech against students being used in the movement for Inner Line Permit System demand, the

ILP_AUG 18IMPHAL, August 17: Reacting to the State Chief Minister, Okram Ibobi’s strongly worded Independence Day speech against students being used in the movement for Inner Line Permit System demand, the JCILPS spearheading the movement has said students are not instigated to join.

Moments after the Chief Minister had started his speech during the Independence Day celebration at the 1st Manipur Rifles ground on August 15, students of several schools participating in the day’s march past parade had erupted with slogans demanding ILPS implementation.

The Chief Minister perturbed by the sloganeering students had termed the agitating students as ‘misguided,’ and had said it is unfortunate that students are being used as tools to raise certain demands in the State.

Ibobi had also added that even during times of war, places like hospitals and schools are left untouched, but in the State, students are being used to an undesirable degree, he had lamented.

Answering to the Chief Minister, the Joint Committee on inner Liner Permit System students’ wing spokesperson Angamba said the students were shouting on their own and they had not been instigated to do so.

Speaking to media persons at the DESAM office today, Angamba said the students are aware of the issue and understand why the ILPS should be implemented in the State.

He said the Chief Minister has said in his speech that the academic environment should not be disturbed, however, he had himself done so by closing down schools unnecessarily.

Commenting further on the Chief Minister’s speech, the student leader said although the Chief Minister has assured that he takes the ILPS issue seriously, there has been no positive response to prove it.

He said if the Chief Minister was sincere, then he should let the public know the discussion he had had with the Centre on the issue.

It is upto the MLAs to bring development in the State.

Meanwhile, demonstrations seeking implementation of the ILPS continued today at various places.

Along with organising sit in protests and other forms of agitations, the JCILPS today started organising mobile public meetings during sit in protests.

Sit in protest with public meetings were held at Sogalband Thingom Leikai, Lamlai Napetpalli Bazar organised by Chingtam Peace & Development Organisation, Awang Potsangbam Khunou, Iboyaima Shumang Leela Shanglen and Moirang Bazar today.

Our Bishnupur Correspondent adds: As part of the ongoing agitation for ILP implementation in the state, the JCILPS has jointly organised a sit-in-protest cum public meeting with All Moirang Women Upliftment Association, Moirang, Citizen’s Club and Apunba Nupi Lup (ANUL), Moirang Unit and Khuman Youth Club (KYC), Moirang at Thoibi Awun Keithel, Moirang today.

The meeting was attended by Councillor, Moirang Municipal Council, Ph Bheigyabati Devi as chief guest, President of Bishnupur District Committee, K. Padama Devi as president and vice-president of ANUL, L Pramo as guest of honour. President of ANUL, Bishnupur, O Sumati, secretary of AMWUA, A Tilotama and member of JCILPS, Sunil Karam, president of NIPCO and president of UPF, BM Yaima were the resource persons.

Placards with slogans such as ‘Implement ILP in Manipur, No Permit No Entry into Manipur, Save Manipur’s Endangered Human Species, Save Land of the Indigenous People, No land ownership to non-Manipuri, Enact land law for indigenous people’ were displayed during the meeting.

Moreover, the President of Moirang District Auto Owners’ and Drivers’ Welfare Association has expressed to the media that the association will organise agitations demanding ILP implementation by six Auto associations in Moirang area. As a result, auto services in Moirang will come to a halt on August 19. The association has also requested for cooperation from the public regarding their agitation.

ATSUM warns of agitations against MU from August 23

IMPHAL, August 17: Warning to launch agitations against the Manipur University from the midnight of August 23 if it doesn’t implement the Central Educational Institutions (Reservation in Admission Amendment Act),

IMPHAL, August 17: Warning to launch agitations against the Manipur University from the midnight of August 23 if it doesn’t implement the Central Educational Institutions (Reservation in Admission Amendment Act), 2012 this year, the All Tribal Student’s Union of Manipur president Maun Tombing stated in a press meet at the students’ body’s office in Nagaram this evening that MU authorities must stop admission procedures until the reservation issue is settled.

Central universities in Manipur like MU, ITI and CAU must all follow the new reservations norms led by Central Educational Institutions Act, he said, and if the authorities don’t issue an order for implementing the Central University Admission Reservation Amendment Act by August 22, ATSUM will launch various forms of agitations like stopping national projects and enforcing blockades on the State from the midnight of August 23 with the support of All Manipur Tribal Union.

Appealing the transporters and commercial vehicle owners to understand the reasons behind enforcing a blockade, he also urged all the brothers in the hills to cooperate in the agitation until they get their rights.

Tombing added that ATSUM, MUTSU and AMTU have submitted a joint memorandum to Human Resource Development minister Smriti Irani Minister, National Commission for Schedule Tribes chairman Dr Rameshwar Oraon and University Grants Commission secretary complaining about the non-implementation of Central Educational Institutions Act, 2012 in MU and requesting for their prompt intervention before the entrance tests for various subjects.

The memorandum says that the university has worked out the detailed data for admission of SC/ST/OBC and unreserved students. The same was approved by the concerned Head of Departments and Deans on July 23 after being intimated by the Union HRD ministry to implement the new reservations norms.

On July 24, the Assistant Registrar by virtue of being the head of a special cell for SC/ST students of the University issued an official press release which reads “in regard to reservation in admission for the academic year 2014-15, as stipulated in the gazette notification dated June 20, 2012, Central Educational Institution Reservation in Admission Amendment Act, 2012, the seat reserved for STs, SCs and OBCs shall be 31%, 2% and 17%”, Tombing said.

He said but on August 14 the academic council without the assistant and deputy registrar of the University in a meeting has abrogated the resolution of July 23 and resolve to keep the Act in abeyance on the pretext of some pandemonium in the University.

Reservation is one of the tools for preserving the interests of the tribes, Tombing said.

However, Manipur University is disregarding the Act with the intention of keeping it in abeyance, he added.

Umang Lai lups oppose Govindaji Temple Board Amendment Bill

IMPHAL, August 17: Various Umanglai Committees, the Umanglai Kanba Apunba Lup (UKAL), civil societies along with several Amaibas and Amaibis have opposed the Govindaji Temple (Third Amendment) Bill, 2014 passed

IMPHAL, August 17: Various Umanglai Committees, the Umanglai Kanba Apunba Lup (UKAL), civil societies along with several Amaibas and Amaibis have opposed the Govindaji Temple (Third Amendment) Bill, 2014 passed by the Manipur Legislative Assembly on July 25 by terming it “unacceptable”.

The decision to oppose the bill was taken at a meeting convened by UKAL at the Iboyaima Sumang Leela Shanglen.

Some of the resolutions taken during the meeting were: not allowing the enforcement of the provisions of the Amendment Bill in the areas under Umanglai by amending section 2 and section 17 of the Bill, to urge the Governor to reject the Bill within September 10, to take up various steps against the said Bill if the Bill is not rejected or repealed within the given deadline, to preserve and protect Umanglai and to observe July 25 every year as Umanglai Kanba Numit.

UKAL convener Mutumcha Nganba Mangang said that the Umanglai faith can likely to lose its followers after the passing of the Bill during the Manipur Legislative Assembly budget session.

The Govindaji Temple Board is only there to look after the properties and gifts offered by the people and bringing the more ancient Umanglai under it is totally unacceptable, he said.

The said Bill will disturb the peace and tranquility among the communities in the state, Nganba said, not only causing disunity and vitiating our ancient traditions, culture etc but may cause unwanted incidents in the State.
