The meeting reiterated its strongest condemnation of the ‘cabinet decision’ adopted on February 10, 2016 regarding the shifting of the proposed Khousabung sub-division to Kangvai sub-division.

The meeting also unanimously resolved to urge all political parties and all intending candidates of 57-Henglep assembly constituency to make their stand clear on the proposed Khousabung sub-division at the earliest, it added.

It continued that the cabinet decision taken under the chairmanship of the then chief minister Okram Ibobi with the ill-advised of the then Congress MLA T Manga Vaiphei was not unconstitutional. The decision was a demonstration of a parochial and divisive agenda which is undemocratic and suppression of people’s voice.
