SENAPATI | Nov 7

The next ‘tripartite talks’ on Manipur district creation imbroglio has been fixed at 12:30 pm on coming Friday, November 10, at Senapati district headquarters. As usual, Satyendra Garg, Joint Secretary of the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA), Government of India will chair the talks.

Meanwhile, the United Naga Council (UNC) has expressed its disappointment today on the alleged “dilly-dallying tactics employed” by the State Government of Manipur and the Central Government on the district creation issue.

After holding an emergency meeting today over the district creation issue, UNC President Gaidon Kamei accused the Government of ‘managing’ the tripartite talks and not intended to resolve the problem. He further said that the Naga body “knows very well that the Government is not seeking to resolve the problem but managing the tripartite talks”.  Gaidon Kamei warned of an “explosive situation” because of the manner in which the Government is treating the issue.

The Government of India and the Government of Manipur should understand the nature of the issue and treat it accordingly. However, as per the records of the tripartite talks the Government is not serious about the issue,” the UNC chief further alleged. He said that the issue is very much a political one and that, “the Government should act accordingly.” Gaidon Kamei urged the Central Government and the State Government of Manipur to be “sincere and show commitment” to the issue.

 In the last ‘tripartite talks’ held on October 6, the UNC had demanded the State Government of Manipur to make its “concrete position” on the district creation issue. The UNC also demanded the nullification of the Manipur State Government constituted ‘Boundary Commission’. The State Government representatives had agreed to place the “objection” raised by UNC on the constitution of the Boundary Commission before the State Government of Manipur for “further consideration”. It can also be noted here that the October 6 talks  “agreed that the previous proceedings will be upheld by the parties concerned”.

It is worth mentioning here that the November 10 talks will be the fifth one. The first one was held on March 19, and the second one on May 19, the third talks on August 11 and the fourth one on October 6.

The organising committee is drawn from 10 opposition political parties including Indian National Congress (INC), Communist Party of India (CPI), Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) among others.

A booklet was released on the after effects of demonetisation called “Protest Levied against Modi-Led Disaster” by the organising committee.

Representative of CPI, Moirangthem Nara Singh during the press conference said that demonitisation is a big blunder and should have been implemented if at all, after through discussions in the Parliament but all these due process was skipped. Instead, Prime Minister Modi and his coterie imposed it on the country, making him the ‘new dictator’ of the country, he pointed out.

He also said that demonetisation is not a reform to fight black money but a reform to induce trouble to the poor majority of the population.

Demonetisation is in fact a diplomatic reform for the big corporates of the country who are actually the culprits in generating black money, he asserted.

CPI observes centenary of October Socialist Revolution

CPI observes centenary of October Socialist Revolution

By A Staff Reporter

IMPHAL | Nov 7

Manipur joined the world wide celebration of the creation of the Soviet Union on the ideology of socialism and equality on November 7, 1917, with a function at the Rup Mahal Theatre organised by Manipur State Council, Communist Party of India (MSC/CPI).

The centenary day of October Socialist Revolution dates back to 1917 when Vladimir Lenin with his army of labours, peasants, and workers among others succeeded in overthrowing the Tsarist autocracy of that time and formed a socialist state.

In the key note address, deputy secretary of MSC/CPI, L. Sotinkumar Singh narrated the achievements of the October revolution. He said that the result of the revolution brought equality and development in one of the most underdeveloped countries in a short duration of time. The revolution changed the face of world’s history and ideology, he added.

Sotinkumar explained that the impact of capitalism and globalisation reached and brought the country environmental degradation, farmers’ suicide, inequality in society, decrease in farm produces and so on.

Considering October revolution as the remarkable incident in world, state secretary of MSC/CPI, M. Nara Singh, said that socialist group was formed with an aim to fight against the rich and powerful elite.

He further mentioned that the true meaning of democracy in India is fading away after the coming of the Modi-led BJP government to power.

He said that in the present scenario “the nation is dividing into many groups on the basis of caste, class, religion etc.” He compared the present situation of the country to the Capitalist Imperialist developmental stage of neo-liberalism.

“In order to save the most disadvantaged group and bring equality in our society, it is high time to bring back the ideology of socialism in India,” he asserted.

The function was also attended by state deputy secretary (organisation) L. Thoiren Singh, secretariat member of the party, A. Lala Singh, secretariat member Kh. Surchand Singh among others as presidium members.
