Former vice chancellor of Manipur University professor Amar Yumnam set the records straight on Wednesday, in connection with the alleged distortion of facts in a thesis related to Manipur, by categorically stating that the challenge should rather be addressed to the already published source materials and referred to by the scholar.
As far as the statements given in the thesis is concerned, the scholar has given references aplenty and all these are mostly published books which have been in the market for more than a decade, he stated in a press note.
During the last three days, he has been visited by Sapamcha Jadumani and the office bearers of the Maheiroi Lup 6 in connection with the content in a book written by Brig S K Sharma, he stated. Concerning the thesis, the printed copies of relevant portions contained in the thesis were provided and the issue being raised was not there, he mentioned.
The whole thesis in his computer was shown to the Maheiroi Lup 6, he further stated, adding as regards to the book which has been mentioned by the student body, his relationship is with the Thesis and not with the Book, he added.
