ISTV appeal

IMPHAL, November 17: The ISTV service provider appealed to farmers to be careful not to start fire of the residue of their harvest near optical fibre cable (OFC). This came in the wake of such an incident when OFC wire of Wangbal to Kakching-Sugunu line along Imphal- Moreh road caught fire and signal was disrupted. Such freak disturbance should not happen again, it stated.

Unsavory Dealing

Packets of edible salt were flying off the shelves all over the state on Friday as panic-stricken shopper braced themselves for its impending disappearance. The farcical rush to pile reserve stock of salt in Manipur and other north-eastern states was proven to be an outcome of coordinated dissemination of rumors which had its epicenters in Bihar and Orrisa. Yet again, the handy and easily accessible mobile phones played the perfect accessory to the gossip mongers as it did during the episode of hate campaign against people from north-eastern states living in southern India a couple of years back. From early morning of Friday, people vied for the honor of passing on the information about the urgent situation to everyone in their memory, the stream of calls assailing even the skeptics. Prices of one kg packet of common salt shot up to around Rs 150 against the market price of Rs 12 in Imphal and other towns in Manipur.

The Indian Salt Manufacturers’ Association, the salt traders body of India, had confirmed that the recent spurt in salt prices in eastern states including Manipur was a ‘result of a cartel by a group of traders who colluded to make artificial shortage of salt in the region.’ Though the episode has been deservedly buried in the past in a swift manner, we should not walk away without inculcating the lessons learnt. The state police should register fraud cases and take punitive actions against those responsible for taking advantage of the vulnerable public by hoarding, rumor mongering and black-marketing. It will be in the best interest of one and all if the police announce the numbers of cases registered and arrest made. Also, the state government has the onus of maintaining a stable supply of food and other essential commodities, though admittedly it is easier said than done in the present perspective with the bad road connectivity and consistent disruptions from bandhs and blockades. It will be convenient for the public if the government owns an exigency plan to restrict disproportionate buying by consumers as well as monitor controlled sale by retailers to bolster the confidence of the customers and help them refrain from similar knee-jerk reactions to unfounded reports. Recurrence of such malicious scare is inevitable, created either by pranksters or insatiable traders. Only constant faith on the government’s preparedness can instill self-assurance to the customers and a tendency to take rumor with the proverbial pinch of salt next time it comes into orbit.

Manipuri Muslim Online Forum (MMoF) – Press Release – Sangai Festival 2013

Asking and Demanding our Ministers to Take an Urgent Decision to Include Manipuri Muslim Pictures in Theme and Stalls in Sangai Festival – 2013

DO. No.: MMOF/PR/SangaiFestival/2013
Dated: 17th November, 2013

Manipuri Muslims, locally known as Meitei-Pangals, are inherent fabric of the diversity that Manipuri society represents. We have a history of more than 400 years in this land and have been part of turbulent times and harmonious existence that comprise the glorious past of this “Jewel of India”.

Some of the prominent Muslims had highly recognizable contribution in sports, economic, social and political sphere of Manipuri society. Sangai Festival is mirror to Manipur’s socio-cultural and socio-economic landscape. Manipuri Muslims Online Forum request the responsible authority to include stalls representing the culture and social life of Manipuri Muslims in the coming edition of Sangai festival.

The stall will strengthen the identity of this backward community and integrity of Manipuri society. An urgent decision in this regard should be taken by the Department of Art and Culture and the minister and MLAs from Muslim community.

KOHIMA, Nov 16 (NEPS): A team of Nagaland Legislature Forum for AIDS (NLFA) led by Assembly Speaker Chotisuh Sazo has left Nagaland today to attend the “11^th International Congress on AIDS in Asia and the Pacific (ICAAP)” to be held from November 11 to 22, 2013 in Bangkok, Thailand.

The NLFA Team Members are Chotisuh Sazo, Speaker, Nagaland Legislative Assembly (NLA) and Convener, NLFA, Er Levi Rengma, Deputy Speaker, NLA, Mmholumo Kikon, MLA, Ameba Yaden, MLA, Toyang Chang, MLA and Khekaho Assumi, MLA and also Dr Vinito Chishi, State Consultant on NLFA and Miss Hukatoli, an Official of the NLFA.

Mmholumo Kikon, who is currently at Hong Kong, will fly to Bangkok and join the Team tomorrow at Bangkok.

Talking to NEPS at Dimapur Airport before leaving for Bangkok via Kolkata, Chotiush Sazo, the Team Leader, said he would more emphasize on the importance of keeping strict vigil on the porous International border to Nagaland State as such HIV/AIDS also allegedly came to their side from across the International border of Myanmar. “We should adopt some kind of mechanism as to how we can prevent spreading of HIV/AIDS from across the International border,” he said disclosing that the State (Nagaland) has 250 kilometers bordering with Myanmar. “I am going to draw attention of the world leaders who are attending in this very important 11^th International Congress on AIDS in Asia and the Pacific at Bangkok,” he added.

“I personally believe that once a mechanism is drawn up to check cross border activities in those porous areas, the prevalence of HIV/AIDS will reduce considerably,” he pointed out.

The Nagaland Speaker also stated that he would draw the attention of the world leader at Bangkok Congress to seriously ponder over the dangerous issues of Hepatitis B because this “menace” was always associated with HIV patients. “We have to find ways to solve this area too,” he added.

Dr Vinito Chishi, State Consultant on NLFA, while talking to NEPS here at the Dimapur Airport, expressed the hope that attending such International Congress on AIDS by their legislators at Bangkok would immensely give fruitful education to “our legislators.”
