[ad_1]
Manipur celebrated the 72nd Republic Day in a befitting method peacefully despite the boycott call given by a number of armed underground outfits. Governor Najma Heptulla hoisted the nationwide flag at Kangla in Imphal and took salutes from 49 contingents.
Manipur Chief Minister N. Biren mentioned, “ We had to slash the number of contingents in view of the COVID-19 restrictions”.
There have been complaints from some mediapersons that the police didn’t enable them to enter the celebration venues.
Mr. Biren mentioned, “ There are developmental works throughout the State in the last three years or so. Manipur’s mountains are today bereft of greenery. there is also burgeoning poppy cultivation in the hill areas. The people should come forth for alternative cultivation since the government is ready to assist them. We have destroyed verdant poppy plants in 250 acres in the mountains”.
The celebrations have been performed in different districts as properly.
