Lamka, Apr 3: After Rahul Gandhi had pulled a huge crowd in yesterday’s election rally at Tuibuong ground here, now NCP has decided to counter Gandhi scion’s campaign by fielding party secretary general PA Sangma for his party’s Outer Manipur candidate LB Sona. Confirming the date for Sangma’s visit LB Sona today said, “Sangma is expec- ted to arrive here before 12 noon on April 7 to address a rally of the NCP at Lamka Public ground.”
Interacting with The Sangai Express on the sidelines of formal launch of his election campaign at its office here today, Sona claim- ed that his prospect of wining the Outer seat is grow- ing by the day.
“Our efforts will definitely be getting a better crowd,” he added, apparently in reference to Rahul’s rally.
With a mere 13 days left for campaigning, Sona in his address to party workers exhorted for a concerted effort to make their cause reach every household within the constituency.
MPP on a mission, proclaims O Joy
IMPHAL, Apr 3 : Th Chaoba of Manipur Democratic Alliance (MDA), comprising of the MPP, NCP, MSCP and NPP, is being fielded in the Inner Manipur Parliamentary constituency on a mission based on five points by the alliance, said O Joy of MPP.
MLA Joy was speaking at the elections of campaigns of Th Chaoba held at Laipham Khunou Makha Leikai under Heingang A/C and Kwakeithel Thounaojam Leikai under Keishamthong A/C today.
Joy said that the people should adopt a collective stand not to elect Congress or CPI candidates in the Lok Sabha elections.
Reacting to CPI dubbing MPP as ‘paper tiger’, Joy compared CPI to a dog’s tail.
It was during the tenure of Parijat as Agriculture Minister that he went scrambling for fertilizer and that MLAs were sent to jostle for fertilizer besides the seizure of a huge quantity of fertilizer by Army enroute to Moreh, Joy asserted.
Expressing surprise over the assurance of Rahul Gandhi that the territorial integrity of Manipur would not be compromised, the veteran MPP leader claimed that it was MPP that persuaded the State Legislative Assembly to take a resolution against the election manifesto of the Congress party published during the time of Assembly elections in Nagaland which endorsed unification of Naga inhabited areas.
People should decide on the contrasting statements made by Congress leaders while speaking in Manipur that the territorial integrity of Manipur would be safeguarded and that Naga inhabited areas should be unified while speaking in the neighbouring State, Joy said.
MLA Ng Bijoy spoke on the efforts of Th Chaoba during his stint as Union Minister to develop NH 150 in Manipur, establish gas bottling plant, opening of SAI centre, establishment of Special Area Games centre, opening of Sports Academy having 19 streams, establishment of food park and towards extension of railway to Manipur.
Meinya, Nipamacha, Khetarani file papers
IMPHAL, Apr 3: Dr Meinya of Congress, Wahengbam Nipamacha of BJP and L Khetarani of Rashtriya Bahujan Congress Party today filed their nomination papers to contest in the upcoming Lok Sabha election for the Inner Manipur Parliamentary seat.
The three aspiring candidates submitted their nomination papers to the Deputy Commissioner of Imphal West who is also the Returning Officer of election to the Inner seat.
Including them, so far 6 candidates have filed their nomination papers for the Inner seat.
The aspiring candidates who have already submitted their nomination papers include Dr Nara of CPI, retired IPS officer A Rahman and Nongmaithem Homendro. The latter two filed their nomination papers to contest in he election as independent candidates.
Dr Meinya submitted his nomination papers at around 11.45 am today.
Chief Minister O Ibobi Singh, MPCC president Gaikhangam, Ministers and other Congress workers accompanied Dr Meinya while coming to submit his nomination paper.
Talking to mediapersons at the occasion, Chief Minister O Ibobi Singh exuded confidence that Dr Meinya would emerge winner by getting atleast 1 lakh votes over his nearest rival.
Congress would like to fight in this election against many candidates. The candidates should also be those who are not contesting in the election only in name sake but prominent figures, the Chief Minister added.
When asked whether AICC president Sonia Gandhi would be coming to Imphal in connection with the election, the Chief Minister said that the exact timing of her visit has not yet been finalised, although she had given her assurance of coming for the election campaign.
After coming out from filing his nomination papers, Dr Meinya told mediapersons brusquely ‘to look at the election manifesto’ when asked about his priorities areas.
‘Lets ensure my election’, he added.
In connection with the election manifesto of the Congress party, Chief Minister O Ibobi Singh said that since it is a Parliamentary election, there would be no separate election manifesto of the party for Manipur. The election manifesto published at the National level would be translated in Manipur.
Nonetheless, he assured that he would look into inclusion of issues related to Manipur, if it is required.
On the other hand, Wahengbam Nipamacha of BJP told mediapersons after filing his nomination paper that BJP would give priorities on improvement of roads and bridges, law and order and protection of integrity.
