IMPHAL, September 7:The JD(U) state unit has said the party would file a suit against expelled Jan Adhikari Party leader Pappu Yadav within two day in the High Court of Manipur for making dangerous and provocative statements against the Manipuri people, said president M Tombi.
Speaking to media persons in a press meet held at the office of the JD(U) Babupara, Tombi further said that the act of Pappu Yadav searching for Manipuri aboard trains which pass Bihar state is very unfortunate and inhuman in nature.
If any Manipuri faces untoward incident at any place in the India the responsibility should be fixed on Pappu Yadav, he said.
In this regard the JD(U) state unit has sent a memorandum to central leaders of the JD(U) Sarat Yadav and Nitish Kumar through the party`™s NE-in-charge, Arunkumar Shivastava.
The written memorandum has asked for taking up a criminal case against Pappu Yadav in the Bihar High Court too, he said.
He further clarified that the allegations of Pappu Yadav about the treatment of Bihari labourers in Manipur are totally wrong and baseless.
He explained that the case of a Manipuri women beating up a non-local woman, despicable though it was, is related to anti-alcohol campaign and nothing to do with the current agitation.
Another person`™s shop was ransacked by ILP protester, but that was for using slang language against the issue of state and against Manipuri interest.
He further appealed to people of Manipr not to take Pappu Yadav`™s statement seriously because Pappu Yadav is like a street dog in Bihar.
He is instigated by some political party to seek cheap political mileage before the upcoming Bihar election, said Tombi.
General secretary Lein Gangte said that Manipur is now in facing a situation of sky rocketing prices commodities and essential items in last few days.
The JD(U) asked the central government to intervene to alleviate the state`™s situation and to help it to recover.
The protest over the various issue of ILPS together with the cutting off of traffic on the state`™s two life lines National Highways 2 and 37, on account of landslides, have resulted in the prices of the petrol shooting up to 190 per litre, diesel 120 per litre and kerosene 90 per litre in the black market.
