Manipur ADC Bill Row: ATSUM clarifies on imposition of total shutdown

ATSUM has clarified its positions on the imposition of the last total shutdown in the hill districts, as a protest against the failure of the state Government to implement what was agreed upon.

Kakai Singsit, Finance Secretary, ATSUM emphasized the Memorandum of Understanding signed between the student body and the state government last year on August 25.

As per the agreement the government had agreed to table the Hill Area Committee Recommended ADC Bill, 2021 in the winter session last year.

However, the agreement was not carried out in letter and spirit and the state government failed to abide by its promises Singsit added.

The student leader lamented that instead of tabling the ADC bill another bill was introduced in the state assembly.

ATSUM also condemned the state Police for thrashing up college and Higher Secondary students in Imphal on Saturday.
