DESAM decries selection of non Manipuris

IMPHAL | Nov 6

Strongly condemning the selection of five non – Manipuris in the result of the written test conducted for the nine post of Manipur Judicial Service – III under Manipur High Court, the Democratic Students’ Alliance of Manipur (DESAM) said the selected five must decline themselves from attending the DPC.

A release said DESAM had been continually taking strong measures against the selection of non locals for posts in Manipur and making protests that no form of advantages should be given to them. It is unfortunate that five non locals had been selected in the result of the written test for the nine vacant posts under Manipuri High Court, it said. The release demanded that the selected five must decline themselves from attending the DPC to be held on November 11 and 12.

The authorities must not allow the non Manipuris to sit in the DPC and the government ought to take the matter seriously, it continued. If the candidates and the authorities go against the stated demands, then DESAM will take up extreme measures in order to save the indigenous people of the State, it said. The government, authorities of the high court of Manipur and the candidates must be held responsible for whatever the outcome, it added.
