Shillong, Nov 5: The North East Students’ Organisation (NESO) will stage protests in all the state capitals on November 9 to resolve the Manipur issue.
NESO expressed concern over the prevailing situation in Manipur as almost six months have passed but the situation has not returned to any semblance of normalcy and ‘this can be attributed to the abject failure on the part of the Government of India to address the situation in an efficient manner thus putting the lives and property of the people at stake especially the career of the students community’.
In a statement, NESO said that the executive council meeting held on October 31 in Guwahati has resolved to stage demonstration in all the respective state capitals of the North East on November 9.
“The protest is called to express our strong resentment against the failure of the Centre to resolve the six-month long ongoing violence in Manipur and demand that the Government of India should not continue to turn a blind eye but to find out ways and means how to resolve the issue at the earliest taking into consideration the views and opinions of the concerned stakeholders on board”, the NESO said
