Along with the call for boycotting January 26 Republic Day, the umbrella organisation has also closed its door on opening any political negotiation or ‘talks’ except on the issue of “Sovereignty and Independence”
TFM Desk
Like the previous years, the proscribed Coordination Committee (CorCom) — a conglomerate of major armed groups in Manipur has called for an 18-hour total shutdown from January 25 midnight till 6 pm on January 26. Along with the call for boycotting January 26 Republic Day, the umbrella organisation has also closed its door on opening any political negotiation or ‘talks’ except on the issue of “Sovereignty and Independence”
CorCom in a statement issued by its publicity committee appealed to the public to cease work, stay indoors and boycott the Republic Day celebrations. Religious ceremonies, medical related, and other public emergencies have been exempted from the purview of the total shutdown.
The CorCom statement said that India celebrates January 26 as Republic Day but for the people of Kangleipak Manipur, it should be considered as “Repressive Day”. The day as observed by India is to showcase the efforts to erase history of Manipur; transfer of power from Kangla to Delhi and changing of venue from London’s Whitehall to India’s Red Fort by exhibiting the power of the Indian Army, said CorCom.
