Responsibility of the vast array of choices Burden and responsibility

The choices are immense and obviously good for the young students. However like everything else, nothing should be taken at face value and it is here that parents, guardians, elders of the family and yes the young students themselves need to be very, very careful while choosing the institution of their choice as well as […]

Defeating the spirt of 10th Schedule Renegade Congress MLAs

Defeating the spirit and essence of the 10th Schedule of the Constitution of India. The BJP led Government here is certainly going great guns, particularly in reaching out to the hills, but a look at its composition should give food for thought to everyone. The BJP did the right thing in going along with the […]

No justice at all in mob justice Taking law into one’s hand

Mob uprising. The other term mob justice is a sort of a misnomer, for there is nothing that remotely resembles justice when a mob takes the law into its own hand and lynches someone or destroys the properties of a suspect. Manipur is not new to such ugly incidents happening in the past and there […]

Food for thought for Class X students Not the end, just the start

This is for all the students who may be disappointed with their results in the just announced HSLC examination. This is not the end of the road, but the beginning. As with so many aspects of life, not everything will measure up to one’s expectations and it is the ability to take the shortcomings and […]

Banning bandh/blockade

Ban bandh and blockade. Declare them illegal. Fix responsibilities on the sponsors and organisers of such bandhs and blockades and if convicted, bar them from getting employment with the Government and any other benefits of the numerous schemes floated by the Government.

Letting professionals run DIPR Keeping the people informed

No doubt about this. The Directorate of Information and Public Relations (DIPR) has changed for the better and one reason for this possibly could be the decision of the then Congress Government to make this department strictly professional. As the name itself suggests, the primary task of the DIPR should be about dissemination of information […]

First visible step to check corruption Take it to the highest level

Not that this will stop corruption. But this is perhaps the first visible sign of the State Government delivering a powerful statement that it is intent on pulling up those involved in corrupt practices. How successful the initiative of the Government is will depend on whether the Government has taken up this initiative with the […]

Shirui Lily Fest off to a grand start From village to State level

Yes, the first State level Shirui Lily Festival has got off to a grand start and all credits for this should obviously go to the State Flower, the BJP led State Government and the hospitality of the people of Ukhrul and Shirui village.

Belated Call: Equality in place of majoritarianism

Better late than never. We can only take solace from the fact it is, in most cases, better late than never. Of course, we are referring to Chief Minister Nongthombam Biren’s thought provoking call to give up Meitei-centric mentality. Biren himself is a Meitei and he was calling upon fellow Meiteis to give up Meitei-centric […]

Hands that rock the cradle rule the world Saluting mothers

Give me a good mother and I will give you the world. This quote may be attributed to Napoleon Bonaparte but it should stand true for everyone.
