Leader writer: Leivon Jimmy

Exploitation is becoming a part of life in Manipur or we can say that we are living with it everyday. It is around us and passes by un-noticed. What we have to do is just to observe carefully for there are many forms of exploitation taking place right before us. The nature of it is sometime in stealth mode and the other is quite opposite however both have its own adverse impact.

On the other hand, the perpetrator can be categories in two ways when observed in the context of Manipur. One is triggered out of desperation while the other makes complete sense of the very `exploitation` word, the selfish and vested interest lying beneath with due regard of ones feelings and sentiment.

The later is the factor that has triggered frustration and anger in the mind of the people and a close cousin of `corruption`, a root cause of the all prevailing unwanted mayhem in the state and as well as the entire country. This handy work can only be performed by those who have the influence and guts and who themselves is the guts or influence.

To give an example is the recent reports which came to the limelight of providing the old age pension to a 35 year old woman in Thoubal. It is quite an embarrassment for the state for we could be viewed by others as a state unable to define what an `old age`™ means. Moreover, it is the question of deprivation of right of a hapless, destitute section. Let us not be fast judging and see the positive side, and weigh whether it is fair for local adjustment if necessary?, an old lady, who could be a widow and on one hand a young woman at her mid 30, with husband?. God Knows. This is just an exceptional case that could hit the news stand and came to the notice of the public however there might be many such cases or worse than this unable to see the light and hidden underneath waiting to be unearthed.

Coming to the other form of exploitation referring to is `Exploitation of resource and things around us`™, a common site and might view as usual an ineffective one. However it is very much threatening. Extinction, endangered and climate change are few words that are the outcome of it.

One of the most concerning of these is the deforestation. It has become an issue that needs a serious attention from the government side as well as the NGOs. The demand for end product of trees is growing with the growing of the population. Minimising the scope of elaboration, charcoal vendors only in some of the Imphal East area is evident of the degree of demands. The shops store charcoal in bulk, a sign of fallen trees.

At the same time, many fish species, animals have become extinct and some on the verge of extinction. The reason I should say is excessiveness. There are no limits for everything in our state. It won`™t be wrong to say that Fishermen fish in their own will, for even immature fish are put up for sale. Not only fish even vegetable vendors or grower are doing the same.

There are many reasons for the act of exploitations. To point out few includes the desperate situation due to poverty, lack of awareness, growing number of demands, unemployment and vested interest etc. It should be prevented for it can target one after another and until the target becomes everyone of us.

By Oken Jeet Sandham

KOHIMA, Apr 29 (NEPS): Nagaland DGP K Kire said the State had geared up all the necessary security arrangements for the smooth conduct of the ensuing by-election of 26 Aonglenden Assembly Constituency to be held on May 7 next in Mokokchung district.

Former Nagaland Chief Minister and ex-Governor of Maharashtra and Goa Dr SC Jamir, Congress candidate and Toshipokba, ruling NPF party candidate, are fighting this by-election.

Talking to NEPS here at his office chamber today, the DGP said so far they had not received any incident till date and everything was peaceful in the district in general and the 26 Aonglenden Assembly Constituency area in particular.

He also disclosed that the Home Ministry had directed them to deploy 15 Companies of CRPF drawing from Manipur, Nagaland and Tripura for the by-election purpose in the Mokokchung district. “But we taken only 10 Companies,” Kire said adding, “They already have 5 Companies of CRPF while another 5 Companies of CRPF from Manipur have already come to Nagaland.”

Out of the 10 Companies of CRPF, 1 Company would be placed in Mokokchung, while the rest would be placed in Tuensang, Zunheboto, Wokha an Peren districts mainly to prevent any elements from disrupting the polls, the Police chief revealed.

In addition to these security arrangements, they also already had 4 Companies of IR Police personnel in Mokokchung and they would be shortly joined by another 1 Company of Mahila IR personnel. “So with these arrangements in place and the prevailing peaceful environment in the district, I expect the ensuing by-election in the district will be by and large peaceful and free and fair,” he added.

Asked about the reported threat to Dr SC Jamir by NSCN (IM), Kire pointed out there was no such report of threat to him (Dr SC Jamir). He revealed that after they received such report of threat to Dr Jamir by NSCN (IM), they investigated with inputs from various sources including Army, SIB, CRPF and State Police. But not a single incident of threat to Dr Jamir was found, he disclosed.

Yet, the Threat Perception Committee had meeting and directed them to take necessary measure to provide security to the candidates. “We are doing all the needful and not taking anything for chances,” he stated.
Even IG (INT) C Sangtam met Dr Jamir yesterday and discussed about his security.

Original Source: The Imphal Free Press

Sir,

At this time of boiling point, I wanted everyone to reason on the life attempt made on Wungnaoshang Keishing, MLA of Phungyar Assembly Constituency on April 15th, 2011 between Riha and New Canaan, P.S. Litan, Ukhrul District. The NSCN-IM has accused Wungnaoshang as defying the wishes of the people and betraying the Nagas, selling out the rights and future of the people, and the demand of Phungyar district by bifurcating Ukhrul district is contradictory to the issue of the Naga Integration. The NSCN-IM has also declared that Wuungnaoshang would be punished as he is challenging the authority of the Nation as he was one of the MLA signatory with the UNC during the last Manipur General Assembly Election in 2007 biding not to go against the interest and decision of the nation if elected.

The NSCN-IM has issued diktat in the last Manipur General Assembly Election that no Naga candidate should contest through Congress ticket but ironically, D.D. Thaisii and Gaikhanagm were elected, who are the only Naga Ministers in the Ibobi’s Government of Manipur at present. The said two Naga Minister has been working hand in glove with the Ibobi’s Government for the last five years. During these times Manipur Autonomous District Council (ADC) election has also been successfully undertaken inspite of the opposition made by the NSCN-IM and the Naga people. The ADC is effectively functioning still now though there is no Constitutional protection for the tribals of Manipur.

The UNC as a mouth piece of NSCN-IM had ordered to the Naga Councilors to resign from the post on or before January 31st, 2011 however the Councilors did not pay any heed to the decree of the UNC. Why is the NSCN-IM remaining a silent spectator? All the Naga MLAs had undertaken with the UNC during the last Manipur General Assembly Election in 2007 to work in the interest and decision of the Naga, if elected. Do all the Naga MLAs complying with the promises? Is Wungnaoshang Keishing the only MLA who is drawing salary and residing at the MLA quarter though the Naga MLAs had tendered resignation? Why is the ADC, Manipur allowed to function/survive so far?

Is it because many of the Councilors are related to the NSCN-IM senior leaders? On the other hand, the UNC has viewed that the demand of Phungyar district as a handiwork of the adversaries to vitiate and derail the Alternative Arrangement process. As such, the UNC has urged to withdraw the demand on unhealthy ground for the Nagas. Will the creation of Phungyar district contradict to the Naga Integration? Or will it derail the Alternative Arrangement? I don’t see that the creation of Phungyar district will effect or bring an adverse impact on the Naga Integration and Alternative Arrangement. The NSCN-IM and UNC are making unnecessary excuses for some hidden agendas.

The mass people under Phungyar A/C covering four sub-divisions are fully backing the demand for full-fledged Phungyar district as it will bring an upliftment and living standard to the down trodden and deprived Phungyar, Kamjong, Kasom Khullen and Sahamphung Sub-Divisions of Ukhrul district. The demand for Phungyar disitrct should not be mixed up with the issue of Naga Integration or Alternative Arrangement to confuse the people as there is no way that Phungyar district would be out of the box. I would rather observe that the NSCN-IM is against the demand of the Phungyar district as they wanted the undeveloped and deprive people to remain as it is, while they wanted all the privilege for themselves from the funds/schemes allocation for the Ukhrul district.

The creation of Phungyar district out of Ukhrul district would result in dividing the allocation of funds/schemes being sanctioned and it would affect the influence and income of the senior NSCN-IM leaders who are mostly from West and North Ukhrul. I like to question, how could the senior NSCN-IM leaders effort their son and daughter to study and stay abroad? Whether the land/plot being procured discreetly by the NSCN-IM senior leaders is for the Nation? What about the building? What about the Vehicles? What about the gold ornaments their wife and daughter are wearing? What about their lavish life style? Is it in the interest and wishes of the people and nation? Does money grow on trees in jungle for them? The NSCN-IM is hotly pursing against the Tangkhul factions mushroomed in Ukhrul district while they do not act anything with the other faction being cropping up in other Naga areas. Example- The Naga National Worker People Support Group (NNWPSG) of Senapati formed mainly by the Poumai and Mao Naga communities had rampantly operated and collected various taxes under the nose of the NSCN-IM while maintaining that the Poumai and Mao public leaders and NSCN-IM senior leaders, who hailed from Senapati, were talking with the NNWPSG to join the NSCN-IM.

After 4 years of dialogue, almost all the main leaders of NNWPSG have defected to the NSCN-K while, few useless cadres joined the NSCN-IM. Is it justifiable on the part of the NSCN-IM for not taking up any action against the NNWPSG on the ground that they would lose people support mainly from Poumai and Mao communities? The Poumai and Mao public leaders and senior NSCN-IM leaders had bamboozled the NSCN-IM for 4 years. Now the NSCN-IM has harvest the result of their injustice. Do the Tangkhul people has to die first when there are many other Nagas who are worse for the people and for the nation than Wungnaoshang Keishing, who wanted to bring some light to the down trodden and deprived people of Phungyar A/C.

Yours sincerely
S. Themshang
Nagaram, Imphal.
