Imphal, Dec 30: The Joint Administrative Council (JAC) of the All Manipur Trade Unions Council (AMTUC) and All Manipur Government Employees Organisation (AMGEO) has in a press release said that the statement of the state chief minister saying that the government did not have enough finances to implement the 6th Pay Commission norms is far from the truth.
Quoting a report of the ministry of finance, government of India, the release said that Rs. 2,232.65 crores have been sanctioned for the period of April 2008 till December 3, 2008.
It also questioned the contradicting statements of the chief minister over the exact amount of finances required for implementing the 6th Pay Commission norms and asked for a white paper stating that there are no funds available with the government. -IFP
NE students rally in Delhi over molestation
NEW DELHI, Dec 29 – Students hailing from the North-east today staged a peace rally at Gurgaon, near here in protest against molestation of two girls of Manipur by their land lord and his hench-men. Over 100 students, members of Assamese Students Association, Delhi (ASAD) and Manipur Students Association, Delhi (MASAD), however, had to face the wrath of the locals, who tried to disrupt the demonstration. They tore away the banner and posters, before local Police arrived and controlled the situation.
The demonstrators also included the two victims, who were molested by the goons. The incident occurred on December 12, when the landlord entered the room, rented out to the two girls just two days ago, in a drunken state.
The two girls, who are in their early twenties, were earlier working in a call centre at Chandigarh but came down to Gurgaon looking for jobs. The accused landlord and his son also beat up the two girls. The local Police had initially registered case under milder sections, which was later modified under public pressure. source: assam tribune.
