AIZAWL, Sept 8 NNN : The Opposition Mizo National Front (MNF) is all set to impose Mizoram bandh on Tuesday but the ruling Congress is opposing it.
The MNF is calling bandh as a mark of resentment against the alleged misrule of Lal Thanhawla led Congress government in Mizoram. The Congress party called the move of the Opposition as ‘illogcal’ saying Mizoram has been shining because of the Congress government.
The ruling Congress party is enjoying the popularity of its pilot project New Land Use Policy (NLUP) in the rural areas.
General decadence of political system coupled with economic recession in the state have compelled us to protest,” said the Action Committee of the MNF. The MNF also accused Lalrinliana Sailo, Mizoram health minister of indulging in drug smuggling.
The Congress party said during the MNF rule under Zoramthanga, the state of Mizoram had suffered immensely. “Corruption was in the peak under the MNF rule,” accused the Congress party. MNF too said corruption has become too rampant under the Congress rule in Mizoram and appealed the people of the state to understand this. Mizoram will witness assembly elections sometime in October end or in November.

Mail News Service
Imphal, Sep 8 : The press hand out of the state Home Deptt. regarding the proposed home coming ceremony to Kuki National Liberation Front (KNLF) is a bit distressing since the said organization is ridden with faction and the two leaders – the chairman and the C-in C, are still active in Myanmar and receiving some cadres and bringing them into SoO agreement without the knowledge of the top leaders will not achieve the intended target said JM Thadou, Information and Pub Secy, United Kuki Liberation Front (UKLF) in a press hand out today.
The KNLF cadres who are supposed to be part of the home coming ceremony are mostly fake cadres (just pick up from Moreh area) organized by some people purposely for the home coming ceremony it was alleged.
The attempt of the government to bring all armed revolutionary groups into SoO agreement is laudable but inclusion of factions and bogus cadres/groups will not add any feather to the grand scheme of the govt. Indeed this will only encourage more and more people/groups to organize more and more new cadres/groups in future and the whole scheme of thing will be messed up instead of solving the problem.
UKLF/UPF suggested to the government that not only the said KNLF, all other faction ridden groups are also not to be given a chance to come into SoO agreement became the whole plan of things will get no where .

IMPHAL, Sep 8 NNN : Opposition political parties in Manipur have demanded to immediately halt the ongoing border fencing work in the Indo-Myanmar border.
Trinamool Congress MLA Dr I Ibohanbi Singh while briefing the media at Moreh Trade Centre said the border should not continue unless the matter is amicably resolved between Myanmar and India.
He also said vast land of wild life sanctuary has been affected due to the faulty fencing work.
It can be noted here that a six-member team of Manipur Opposition visited border villages on Saturday along the Indo-Myanmar border to make an assessment of the international line in Chandel district, neighbouring Myanmar.
The MLA team led by Opposition leader Dr I Ibohalbi arrived in Moreh town in Chandel just before midday. From there they went to Holenphai, Govajang and other border villages to oversee them. The Opposition has claimed that huge portion of Manipur’s border land areas hve been ceded to Myanmar in the border fence construction.
Dr Ibohalbi then asked whether the authorisations have been obtained from the departments of forest, revenue or for that matter, the deputy commissioner of Chandel and other concerned authorities before the fencing began.
MLA Shyamkumar joining the press meet said the security force personnel are doing nothing while the Myanmarese army recently constructed a temporary camp near the disputed Border Pillar number 23.
Meanwhile, sources said the team is likely to submit a report on the visit to the Centre soon and put pressure for addressing the issue.
The Opposition team led by Dr Ibohalbi included MLAs Th Biswajit, M Kunjo, Th Shyamkumar, O Lukhoi and K Sharat. The Indo-Myanmar Border Fencing Committee headed by Principal Secretary (Home) Dr J Suresh Babu had earlier made a spot assessment of the international border fencing in Manipur’s Chandel district on August 26 last.
During the visit the Committee inspected Holenphai and Govajang villages, and Tamil Sangam area located between Moreh Gate No 1 and 2 which have been apparently affected by the Indo-Myanmar Border Fencing.
However, the Principal Secretary (Home) during the trip had claimed that the current Indo-Myanmar Border Fencing was just a “security barrier.”

Lucknow/New Delhi, Sept 8 (ANI): Thirty people have been arrested so far in connection with the communal clash between two communities in Muzzafarnagar, and the death toll has risen to 21 with 40 others injured.
ADG Law and Order Uttar Pradesh Arun Kumar said the situation was under control in Muzaffarnagar.
“Since last night no untoward incident has taken place. Eight columns of army have reached Muzaffarnagar and they have conducted flag march. The government of India has dispatched extra police force and CRPF personnel. Senior officials have been sent to Muzaffarnagar and its surrounding areas from Lucknow. We have arrested 30 people since last night and situation is under control,” he said in Lucknow.
Meanwhile, Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) has sought sacking of the state government, claiming that it failed to perform its democratic and constitutional responsibility.
“It not only reflects complete bankruptcy on the party of the state government but the government has failed perform its democratic and constitutional responsibility. Mayawati has been demanding for a very long time that this government is a failure and it should resign. This government should be sacked by invoking 356 article of the Constitution,” BSP leader Sudhindra Bhadoria said.
The (BJP) leader Mukhtar Abbas Naqvi hit out at the UP government over repeated communal riots in the state.
“Action should be taken against the rioters, the perpetrators of such crimes and innocent people should be given protection. But opposite is happening. Uttar Pradesh is reeling under a series of communal riots on a weekly basis and still they call themselves secular,” he said.
Army on Sunday staged a flag march in riot-hit areas of Muzaffarnagar district, and the UP government has imposed an indefinite curfew in Civil lines, Kotwali and Nai Mandi area of Muzaffarnagar.
According to reports, at least twelve persons, including a TV channel journalist and a photographer hired by the police have been killed and around 40 injured in clashes between two groups since yesterday.
Violence broke out in the Kawal area of Muzaffarnagar yesterday when members of a community returning from a panchayat meeting in Naglabadhod, three kilometres from Kawal, clashed with members of another community.
According to TV reports, Rajiv Verma, who worked as a freelance television journalist, was reportedly caught in the crossfire at Meenakshi Chauraha. In Sekeda village, a photographer who the police had hired, was beaten to death.
Meanwhile, the Uttar Pradesh Government has announced an ex-gratia of Rs 15 lakh to the kin of the TV journalist and Rs 10 lakh to the family of others who were killed in clashes between members of two communities in Muzaffarnagar.
