Imphal, January 5: BJP Manipur Pradesh will launch three different agitations in the next three months to protest against the state government for not taking up a single project which the Union government has included in its 100 days programme, stated Manipur Pradesh BJP chief Th Chaoba while interacting with media persons today at the residence of O Malesh , president of the Yuva Morch, BJP Manipur Pradesh.
Chaoba said the projects included in the 100 days programme are the repair of the Imphal-Jiribam road which feature in the Union budget, the construction of FCI godowns in all the State`™s districts for which the government has already withdrawn funds and establishment of a National Sport University which is still mired in controversies with the construction site yet to be confirmed.
BJP will launch three agitations to expedite these projects. The present condition of NH 37(Imphal-Jiribam road) road remains deplorable even after it was included in the 100 days programme. BJP will mount pressure on both the Central and the State government to expedite its repair during the agitations, the State BJP chief said.
He said the State government has withdrawn all the funds for the construction of FCI godowns in all the districts of Manipur but there are no signs of any development for the constructions in the districts. During the agitation, BJP will demand to know how many godowns have been completed and how many remains to be completed because the government till date has not mentioned the actual number of godowns to be constructed. But all the funds have been deposited to MDS which is the finest place for covering the trail of the Chief Minister`s corruption, he alleged.
The State government is outwardly showing encouragement to the sports persons of Manipur but haven`™t done anything to establish a world class Sports University. During the agitation, BJP will demand to know the status of the National Spot University and where it will be constructed and whether the site proposed by the government is disputed and whether the government has got the approval of the people, he said.
The government`™s response to the recovery of Skulls and bones from the campus of Tombisana was not immediate. If such case had happened in other States, the CBI might have started its investigations already, he opined, asking why the State government likes to keep matters pending starting from the skulls and recovery case to the construction of the Sanjenthong Bridge.
The case of the skulls and bones need immediate investigation because any further delay would lead to the loss of evidence, he said.
Chaoba said BJP Manipur has made major achievements last years despite suffering electoral defeat in the Hiyanglam bye-polls because politically speaking the party was gaining in popularity among the people of Manipur.
