Almost half a dozen or more Primary Teachers have been dismissed because they were found pursuing MBBS courses. These Primary Teachers were posted at different Government schools and they had all the time to pursue MBBS courses and at the same time enjoyed monthly salaries of being Government teachers. These reports of fraudulence tell a very sorry state of affairs at Government schools.

At the stroke of midnight, the year 2017 would become history. As we welcome the new year with hopes of a better tomorrow and a more secure and peaceful future, we as a people need to look back at the year gone-by. Each and every one of us living in the troubled State of Manipur fractured with disjointed imagined homelands need to retrospect the years gone by and introspect into our future. No doubt, 2017 added volumes of events to the more than 2000 years old written history of Manipur.

People’s nagging anxiety and apprehensions bred by the secretive Framework Agreement signed between the Government of India and NSCN-IM which is intended to serve as broad parameters for a final settlement to the vexed Naga issue have been allayed to some extent by Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s statement that the Government of India will not adopt any one-sided decision on the Naga issue.

It seems the Government of India under Prime Minister Narendra Modi is determined to catch up with the all pervading current of globalization and tap the full potential of trade with neighbouring countries. It is within this scheme of things that New Delhi has chalked a grand plan of connecting the country’s highways with international highways at the whopping cost of Rs 25,000 crore.

What were the suggestions and the measures put forward by the five intellectuals of the State when they met Centre’s Interlocutor to the Naga peace talk, RN Ravi during their meeting at New Delhi on December 13 ? Tough to say, for the suggestions, per se, have not been spelt out in details to the media and one understands why. Given the sensitivity of the issue here, it will be tough to disclose the finer details of what were discussed during the two hour meeting at New Delhi and again remember, save for one, who has stepped into politics, none of the others are involved in politics.

It is a calendar event and yet another Nupi Lan is here. Manipur continues to observe Nupi Lan in remembrance of the women heroes who rose as one against the British Raj and their policies and the spirit of the day continues to highlight the identity of Manipur to the outside world. Maybe it is not the day, Nupi Lan, alone which identifies Manipur to the outside world but in many ways it is the women who have been the flag bearers of the place and the people and the history of Manipur can never be complete without a reference to the numerous women centric attributes in Manipur. A description of Manipur without referring to the Ima market will never be complete and so will be her history without a reference to the Nupi Lan,

A demonstration of the deep divide that the Framework Agreement has spawned. While in the valley area it is the Congress party which has been spearheading a series of public protest demanding that details of the pact signed on August 3, 2015 be spelt out, the Tangkhul Mayar Ngala Long has lined up a human chain at Ukhrul town on December 13 to showcase their support to the Framework Agreement. The funny thing is, no one knows what the Framework Agreement is all about, and so while the Congress has been airing their deep apprehension that the final pact to be inked on the basis of the Framework Agreement may sow the seeds of fragmenting the integrity of the State, the TMNL has announced that the human chain has been planned to show their solidarity and support to the said pact.

Promises galore. Rs 50 lakh assured for setting up a Cold Storage, Rs 13.75 lakh assistance for setting up rural markets in Tamei and other suitable areas in Tamenglong district, Rs 12 lakh assistance for primary processing unit for the farmers. This was how the 14th State Level Orange Festival kicked off at Tamenglong district headquarters on December 6 and obviously the question is how successful has the Orange Festival been in promoting the fruit across the North East region or more importantly how successfully has Tamenglong reaped the fruits of its orange or more particularly from the Orange Festival ?

The BJP led coalition Government is no longer the ‘communal Government of Manipur,’ and this is something which Chief Minister N Biren can proudly wear on his hat. No longer untouchables, as far as some of the hill based organisations are concerned and this can be deduced from the warm welcome extended to the Chief Minister when he went for the inaugural function of the 3rd Flower Festival cum Manipur 1st Cherry Blossom Festival at Kayinu village, Mao Gate on November 26.
