Imphal (Manipur) [India], September 10 (ANI): Manipur Governor Lakshman Prasad Acharya on Tuesday expressed deep concerns over fresh incidents of violence in the state and appealed to all the stakeholders to establish peace.
In an official statement from the Raj Bhavan, the governor said, “Peace and people’s cooperation are the only means that bring societal development. Manipur, the ‘land of jewels’ is not an exception. This state, for a long time, has been an important entity for taking the round development of India to a greater height. However, it has been seen that the state for the last few months has been in turmoil. Some unpleasant incidents gave a severe jolt to the dedicated efforts of the central and state governments towards restoring peace and normalcy in the state.”
He further mentioned that he is constantly speaking to public leaders and students in efforts to establish peace in the state.
“In the wake of the sudden spurt of violent incidents, Governor Lakshman Prasad Acharya expressed deep concern. The governor has said that violence is not the solution to any problem. Everyone will have to contribute and find ways to overcome this problem. ln his bid to solve the problem with the help of the public, the governor is constantly speaking to public leaders, students, and the people in general. Moreover, dedicated efforts are being made in this regard,” the official statement said.
The Manipur Governor further appealed to all sections of society, student organisations, and public leaders to work together to establish peace and help Manipur scale a new height of growth and development.
