IMPHAL, May 31: State Dy Chief Minister Gaikhangam who is at the helm of state affairs in the absence of the state Chief Minister has today urged the Joint Committee on Inner Line Permit System to withdraw its proposed agitations in their demand of the implementation of the Inner Line Permit in Manipur.

The Dy CM was addressing media persons during a press conference at his Old Secretariat office chamber.

The Joint Committee of ILP along with the Joint Committee of ILP of Student bodies had proposed stringent agitations from June 1.

The Dy CM appealed to the committees to withdraw their proposed agitation and added in case the committees failed to listen to the appeal of the government and continue with their proposed agitations, it could result in confrontations between the government and the committees.

“The police cannot remain as silent spectators, if the committee continued with the proposed agitations”, the Dy Chief Minister who also holds the Home portfolio declared.

He said, instead of the confrontation movement, the committees can form a joint delegation with the state government and take the issue to New Delhi and make the demands for implementation of the ILP in the state.

“It is not something that the state can give away, we can only pressure the Centre”, he said.

Meanwhile, on measures taken up by the state in case the committee continued with the proposed agitations which are to start from tomorrow, the Dy CM said, he has already talked to state DGP and  has discussed the security measurements against any such disruptions.
